Hello, I have had Kookoo for about a year. He has been like this the entire time I have had him and before I take him to the vet to get this checked out I was just wondering if this is normal? They feathers look like they are starting to grow back, but they don't? Any help or insight would be appreciated!:confused:

He is plucking! Do bring him to the vet to have things checked out to be sure your on the safe side...

Thanks guys I had a feeling he was plucking!!:( I will take him in this week, I think it might be some kind of bug on him because my house is right behind a sand pit and my dog is always itching:mad:

Unfortunately that is definitely plucking, especially as there has been no improvement since you have had him.
Glad you are taking him to the vet
