Hairless tail by: Susan
I am looking after my Mum's JRT while she is away for six months. She also has no hair on the top of the length of her tail. She is about 10 and I guessed it was because she sat on it, but since I have had her with me I have changed her diet from the less expensive dry food to 'Supercoat' made by Purina'and the fur is actually starting to grow back on skin that looked like a strip of hard leather. When I bath her I also use the massage hose head on the tail to help stimulate growth. Don't know which is causing the regrowth but I'm glad it is coming back.
