Tabs’ Balding And Her Medicated Bath

Tabs has started balding again. It is almost a once-a-year issue for her previously.

Last year, she didn’t have it, though. When she used to, the problem was usually resolved using Advocate spot-on for 2-3 months consecutively.

But this time, the bald spots are all located at the subcut needle pricks. So she has small bald spots all over her body where I prick the needle for subcut.

I’ve made an appointment for her to see the vet today, but this morning, I gave her a bath with Pyo-Hex. This medicated shampoo is milder than Malaseb and it worked wonders with Robin’s balding. It just needed to bathe Robin two times and his balding problem was resolved.

There is, however, a spot on Tabs which is a red round spot, and I need to have that checked if it might be ringworm (I hope it isn’t).

I expected Tabs to jump sky-high during the bath but she was amazingly cooperative. Such a good girl. I had to leave the shampoo on for 7 minutes and during this time, I kept massaging her, so that was doable.

But all in, she was very, very cooperative.
