Cushing's disease is a serious disease that affects older and middle-aged dogs. Caused by a tumor in the pituitary gland, it results in severe hair loss, to the extent that a dog may eventually be covered with only bare skin. If your dog has been diagnosed with Cushing's disease, you can try a natural, gentle, homeopathic treatment. Check with your veterinarian before you begin any course of treatment yourself. He should monitor your dog's response to any homeopathic remedy you choose.
