Dachshund Losing Hair on Ears

RE: Dachshund Losing Hair on Ears Post By Magalis3 (Guest Post) (08/28/2007) My dachshund is also loosing hair on her ears but they are very tender and warm. She is also shaking a lot and itching herself. The vet has done all sorts of tests and still nothing. He is supposing it's an allergy but the medicine isn't clearing anything up, and I am seriously getting worried. RE: Dachshund Losing Hair on Ears Post By Guest (Guest Post) (12/03/2006) I am interested in adopting a Dachshund that we found out has Demodex. The current owner has him on medicine from the vet but my concern is that the investation won't resolve. Has anyone had problems with demodex not resolving, or has anyone had a Dachshund where the mange cleared up? How long should I expect it to take to clear, as it has already been on treatment for ~2 months.

They would scratch at their ears for this (even at night), and fur come off. RE: Dachshund Losing Hair on Ears Post by Turptoo (11) | (04/24/2006) Contact My sister's dachshund had this same problem. The vet told her it was a circulation problem where not enough was getting to the ears. Are her ears real cold? they gave her something for it and the hair grew back some. I will get in touch with my sister and see if I can find out more about this. E-mail me at turp@cableusa and I will let you know what I find out. Shirley in So California
