Fur falling out around nose

Post by sdasilva27 »

The fur around Keeta's nose appears to be falling out and the skin is leathery and wet just like his nose. Does anyone know why this might be happening?

Here are some pics for comparison:

We changed his food back in January and he's had the same bowls since August. He is getting an allergy shot every 3 weeks.
