Hi. My dog has gotten these white spots on one side of his face. I am clueless as to what could be causing this. He is on Bravecto so it can’t be ticks and fleas.

Hello, Thanks for the great photo! Fedro is very cute. Good work on the Bravecto as well. f the skin under the fur is red, itchy, or scabbed, this could be a sign of an underlying skin problem or infection. If the skin is otherwise fine, this could be a case of vitiglio, which causes benign patches of color loss. I'd consult with Fedro's veterinarian if you're concerned.
