An Edinburgh woman has been left anxious as her beloved dog has developed an unusual skin condition.
Robyn Kane, 25, from Liberton noticed her husky's fur was starting to fall out around six months ago and the skin was turning black. As the temperature plummets and snow flurries across Edinburgh, Robyn is worried how Echo will cope.
While huskies are known for adapting in cold and snowy conditions, Robyn is worried that with the loss of fur, that helps regulate Echo's body temperature, this winter will be a tough one for the pup.
