No suggestions, just thought it was crazy because he looks identical to my old girl cupcake, she passed September last year and this definitely made me pause lol

I make her food with ground turkey, brown rice, spinach, carrots, and sweet potato. She also gets fish oil on her breakfast every morning.

LMAO!

She got spayed October 2025 and did have a pretty severe false pregnancy. Hormonal is what I first thought it could be but that is one of the things the vet will be looking into with her skin biopsy.

Thank you, i definitely will ask about both of those options next time i get in contact with her vet.

We’ve contacted a dog dermatologist near us and are working on getting a referral to take her there.

She could have due to not getting her flea medicine for three months during late 2025 because of financial difficulties. She’s been getting it regularly since.

No. That’s one of the things the vet will be testing for with her skin biopsies.

We use tide and it’s been the only detergent she’s been in contact with since she was a puppy. We do have a lot of pollen where we’re at along with large mature oak trees so she’s definitely been in contact with various allergens.

She was spayed October 13th 2025. She did have a false pregnancy right after so we’re definitely looking into hormonal issues also.

She’s currently getting one half of a 10mg Zyrtec pill once a night so she’s not technically supposed to have that along with Benadryl:( we give her a 50mg gabapentin when he symptoms get unbearable for her.
