dogue de bordaux loosing fur

hi my ddb x neopolitan mastiff has been going thin furred on patches all over her body. first it started with one above her eyebrow then small one the othe side but because they are on wrinkles i thought that was what it was wearing away. but now she has got more and a fairly big one on her side she doesnt seem to be messing with them or licking them or anything but there is more appearing today than there was last week. someone told us it may be mange but when looking it up on the net im not sure.
it is like dry skin where there is no fu but becuz she is still so hyper and playful i cant always get close enough to get proper look.
any one got any help?!?!?

she is now 5months old and had it for bout 3/4 weeks

Re: dogue de bordaux loosing fur

Sounds like a skin irritation - probs caused by fleas or some other.

You need to get your dog to the vets to get it properly treated.

Well whatever it is I think you should get her to the vets to get it diagnosed and treated before it escalates
Have you any pics?

Re: dogue de bordaux loosing fur

It could be an allergy to some of your household cleaning stuff.

You really should get her checked out just so it dont get any worse.
