> I recently got a new pekingese about 3 weeks ago. When we got him he had several scabs and alot of dandruff. He scratches all the time and I have noticed a bald spot on him. I'm sure it's not fleas. Any suggestions?

Your baby probably has allergies! Give him a little dose of Benadryl,
especially if he is scratching. Use a cortisone ointment on his "hot spots." It will probably take three or four days to determine if liquid medicine is helping.
