hair loss around eyes

Our rescue girl (we have had her for one year and she is nine years old) is losing her hair around her eyes. She was shedding lots and is now being treated for thyroid and also giving her an Omega 3 supplement. Any ideas?

Re: hair loss around eyes

Demodex mange can cause hair loss around the eyes and body, it tends to leave a moth eaten appearance. It can move into the muzzle area as well. Also the sarcoptic mange which is highly contagious to even humans, have a skin scraping to be sure.

Re: hair loss around eyes

allergies can do it too.
when the fence vines in my area bloom, they get eye discharge and sometimes loose the hair around their eyes.

Re: hair loss around eyes

Thank you for the information. She came with whip worm and girardia (sp). Did change dog food, but to a higher quality Solid Gold Holistic. Am hoping it is not allergy related. Trying to buy food only made in the states and tested on pets only and not lab victims.
