A woman I know has a Westie who had severe skin problems and practically no hair. She and the vets had tried everything and nothing worked. Another friend of mine in CT had been given Atopica for her dog after yrs of problems and she called it the miracle drug. I suggested this to the woman with the Westie - she couldn't believe the difference. The dog now can sit still and has gotten hair back. Might be worth talking to the vet about. Total turn around. I think Atopica is a capsule you open and put in the food according to weight of the dog.
