I think my dog has skin alergies or some type of problem sometimes he gets bumps under the skin out of no where and then some times he has like little spots of missing hair but it goes away and comes back randomly. Any one have any suggestions on what it could be or what to do to stop it?

The random patches of missing hair sounds like mange... could very well be food allergies though. But I hope for your sake it's mange. It's WAY cheaper to treat and WAY easier to enforce. lol

Max also gets missing hair and pimple like bumps... dont think it is mange.. not the way he looks in the picture.. Sir's mom gets this also. Just call your vet and ask him if you can use corn startch!

Athena get similar issues in the summer. And Ares is starting to show the same thing- but it is harder because he is black and we don't see all of the red splotches like we do with Athena.

The vet said she is allergic to grass. We give her allergy medicine if she is going to be outside a lot, but she loves to stay in the house, so we don't have to give it to her very often.
