Do thyroid problems make a dog lose hair?
My aunts boyfriends dog is losing his hair on his back and legs… Supposedly his x wife took to vet and they said it was his thyroid… Is this possible?

Yes they can, especially if it is hypothyroidism and not hyperthyroidism. Tell them to buy a bottle of Canine Thyro-Up, as it is a natural forumla that helps to improve the dog’s thyroid functioning so that it increases production of its own, natural thyroid hormones. As a result, all major symptoms of canine hypothyroidism are addressed.

Thinning hair, as well as being overweight, lethargic, among other things, could indicate an underactive thyroid problem. Ask the vet to run a T4 test.

Yep,and it is treatable with medication that is quite inexpensive.
