asked

My 5-year-old female Husky, Cookie, has been on antibiotics since February for hair loss and red skin patches on her belly, groin, and anal area. The antibiotics started with cephalexin, then changed to clindamycin. The vet prescribed another batch of clindamycin, but I'm concerned about the long-term use of antibiotics. What could be the underlying cause of her skin issues, and is it safe to continue antibiotics for more than three months?
