We’re up to week 11 of Kiki’s atopica journey for her Alopecia X and the rate at which her hair is growing is surprising. It looks like she’s been dunked in Miracle Grow….

Here’s a face view:

   Thank you so much for your diary week by week. We are at week 5 of Atopica treatment for a 9 month old golden retriever. Our dog has atopic dermatitis and we were, like you, thinking the worst and that she wouldn’t get better. Kiki’s story has given us so much hope. Thank you so much.

   I came across your blog as I Googled the pom bald problem, which my dog has. and am trying to find some help for it. Sounds like you’re on the right track.

   I feel so sorryt for Kiki and you. I am a pretty good knitter and have made at least 100 dog sweaters. I have some nice soft acrylic in the house and would be happy to make Kiki a sweater for the winter. Even Phoenix gets some chilly weather at that time. If you would send her measurements to me at the above email address, I can make it up in no time and send it to you. I need the length of her back from base of neck to tail, her girth around her rib cage, and her neck circumference.

   That is so sweet of you to offer to knit her a sweater. I’ve always wanted to learn to knit so I could make her clothes, but I have been quite unsuccessful.

   How much would you like for one of your sweaters? I would love to get Kiki one and then show her off on the site.
