[PyrNet-L] chewing off fur
In recently joining the group and being a new pyr owner I've found what
I've read from everyone to be extremely helpful. I have a small problem I was
wondering if anyone has found a solution to in the past. My 11 month old pyr
Bella started biting at a spot on her back about 6-8 weeks ago, the vet has
told me it's just a "hot spot" and not to worry too much, and to just put
some cortaid on it to reduce the itching. The area that started out the size
of a quarter is now almost the size of my palm. I've continued trying the
cortaid, but it really doesn't seem to help. She doesn't have fleas, and is
completely healthy other than this. Any suggestions to keep her from biting
at this so her fur can grow back would be greatly appreciated.
