bird 10,014 Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 have you got a bull x.?i think it's very common in bull x's and nothing really to worry about.don't know what causes it though. its a form of alopecia = baldness , greyhounds get it alot around the thighs etc, and as above pit x greys get it alot, and pit and staffs can get it as well. maybe get some stuff of the vet to rub in the areas , norm it to encourage hair growth , he know what to give you . 1 Quote Link to post
