Barbara Troxell Our Yorkshire Terrier was born February 13, 2007. About 6 weeks ago, we noticed the hair on her lips getting thin. Then 2-3 weeks ago the hair around her nose has thinned with a couple of small scabs appearing. We took her to the vet and they prescribed Clavomox. She appears very happy and active. Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated. 7/29/2008
