For years my Pekingese has had skin issue with rough patches that turn into sores then bald patches. My vet had me bathing the spots every week with a special shampoo for dermatitis.
About three months ago I read that Rosemary oil is good for the hair. I mixed a few drops of it with a few drops of Ylang Ylang and a tablespoon of coconut oil, then put a drop on each sore in the morning and at night.
Now there is not a single patch without hair and the skin is smooth.
She is 17 years old and her skin is the best it has been for well over 5 years.
