Thanks, Shell. Cesar has lost a lot of his soft and long hair. The breeder (who hasn't seen him) thinks, from what I've told her, that he's going into his "summer coat". The vet thinks it might be an allergic reaction to fleas. He changed his flea medication and on the 14th. I will start him on Advantage (the treatment they gave him last month, was Revolution, plus a "captstar" last week). Still finding a flea or two on him everyday. I treated the yard with nematodes but I don't think it helped. So for now, I am not letting Cesar go outside, until its treated by a company that uses organic type stuff (I am also having the inside done). Gloria
