Hi Shane
I wish that I could do, or recommend, something that you could do yourself to help Dosia, but it sounds to me as though she has a skin condition that needs veterinary care.

It could be Mange which causes hair loss and itching. It can be diagnosed by your vet and the remedy is normally special shampoo or 'dips'. It shouldn't be terribly expensive and if she doesn't get treated it will probably only get worse I'm afraid.

I hope you can find a way to get her to see a vet, and wish you both the best of luck.
