Any vets?
 

I (somehow) ended up taking care of my room mate's friend's dog for like...2 months. Overall she's a great dog, but is starting to get spots where she's loosing fur. There's one on her face, behind her eye, on her right front shoulder, mid-section of her back on her spine, on her right rear thigh, and I think under her chin. They don't seem to be getting any better. The owner took her to the vet the other day and said they told him it was fleas, but I'm not sure about that. She sleeps with me every night, and has for the past month. Wouldn't I then, also have fleas? Also, I've brushed her multiple times with a flea brush and it always come out clean. She also gets bathed once a week.

My room mate and I are starting to think it's Mange, and that the owner never took her to the vet in the first place. The hairless spot on her right front shoulder has black dots all over the skin. I can get some pictures when she wakes up, but they'll be crappy cell phone pics.

I'm taking her to the vet (again) tomorrow, but would like a Pelican Vet's second opinion.

I think that can sometimes be vitamin deficiency in the dog's diet, or some other diet related issue.
Unfortunately, most dogs will eat just about anything, which is why they are so easily poisoned..:(

Is the dog doing anything to these spots, e.g. licking them?
Also, why are you bathing the dog once a week? I would cut back on that immediately to more like once every 2 months.

Sometimes dogs are alergic to fleas or the toxins fleas give them when they bite and the dog gets "pimples" which they scratch.

I'm not a vet, but quite good at looking after pets.
