Query regarding bald patch.

Alpha Buck
When Ginny got spayed they shaved her belly.

Now the lower half of the shaved area has grown back, but not the top half.

Is there anything we can do about it? Have queried this with the Vets and they say her fur is taking a little longer to grow back and not to worry.

The trouble is her fur is not growing back at all, It has been over 2 months.

Any advised would be appreciated?
 
Hiya - this is very similar to Rob. He had an ultrasound a couple of months ago and had his underneath shaved - the hair seemed to be growing back all over and then he had to go back for a second one and it all got shaved again. It has grown back, but like Ginny it has grown back in clumps, and the middle bit is still quite bald :?

I did worry at first about the cold :roll: , but he's mainly in the house. My vet did say it might take a while for all the hair to grow back, but I'm not sure how long a 'while' is :roll:
