Guest MOLLY Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Ive got a query also. My sisters terrier keeps getting a dry patch on her back, about the size of an old 50p a slightly raised area and the flakes are larger than normal dandruff? MOLL. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
juckler123 707 Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Molly is it just above the base of the tail if it is ive seen that in a dog or two in every case it was caused by being alergic to fleas Quote Link to post Share on other sites
