Sore upper lips & loss of fur on muzzle
Our Pyrenean mountain dog has very red upper lips and some of his fur on his muzzle seems to have come out making it show the black pigment underneath we wondered if it could be some sort of an allergy , has anyone had similar problems and if so what was done about it ? Thanks

If so there is a condition where bacteria can get into the skin tissue causing red sores and hair loss and for this you need a course of antibiotics so I would get a vet check .
