well to be honest I'm not sure. If you bought your eskimo from someone I would see if they have any health issues, my eskimo was allergic to fleas and that made her loose her hair hope your eskimo gets better....

they tend to have more trouble with allergies than other dogs. Try a different brand of food? Weed out things they might be allergic to - shampoo, sprays, etc. My vet said to bathe them regularly as well to prevent skin allergies.....Once every two to three months. They also tend to get hotspots.....dab a bit of over the counter antibiotic on the bald spots if they start to look red and ooze lliquid...
