Thanks Gloria!  I hadn't thought about fleas.  I've combed her over and don't 
see fleas but maybe there somewhere I can't see?  Is that what you ran into?  
We did treat the yard in early spring and my 3 yr chi, Sophie,  is on the 
Revolution.  Chiquita's first trip to the vet was on the second day that I 
brought her home and they gave her a dose of the Revolution for under 5 lbs.  
Wednesday sure seems a long way off!

            Same thing happened to my Cesar, at about the same age.  I took him 
to the vet and he said it was "probably" being caused because he had fleas 
(even though he had been treated weeks before).  I treated the yard with 
nematodes, the house with diatomaceous earth, and him with a different flea 
medication and I think maybe I have finally got rid of the fleas, at least I 
hope so.  So, we'll see if his coat improves.  When I talked to the breeder, 
she thought he was just losing his puppy coat, although she never told me that 
could/would happen when I got him.
