Hi Julie, care to introduce yourself a bit more llike location, etc, etc just like in the new member introduction. I am the owner of a male cocker spaniel. I would suggest that you bring her to a vet for a check up and further advise. Does sounds like she's in a poor condition.

By the way Julie, cockers are quite prone to eye, ear problem. As for the coat, just like any long coated dogs, they need to be maintained and groomed occasionally. Mine had problem with his skin once due to the warm weather - puppy rashes. I hope urs is not a case of mange which can be quite infectious. Do bring her to a vet.

You are most welcome Julie. Do keep us updated on her condition and the outcome of the vet's visit. We're all dog lovers here and furthermore, the diagnosis by the vet could prove valuable in the future. By the way, is your dog MKA? If you ever thought of breeding cockers, do let me know...hehe . Anyway, hope ur doggie gets better soon.
