One of the things you said in your reply is that the vet said he has allergies....to what? And what is he giving you to help? The medicated shampoos are great and should help, and it may just take some time for those bare patches to grow in, but if he is itchy, he needs something or he will continue to scratch himself raw and you would be surprised how quickly they can inflict damage to them selves.
Dogs that are all white are usually more susceptible to allergies however no dog is immune. Bulldogs in general have a tendency to have skin issues, some more then others, so it just depends on your dog.
My dog that I currently have is a red and white and he had a small incident with bare patches on his back. We put him on 2 weeks worth of antibiotics and the medicated shampoos and he is doing great.

When you switched the food, if you do it too quickly it can upset their stomachs and it usually takes 2 or 3 weeks for the switch over. You mix the foods together. There are other "flavors" of Natural Balance foods, Duck and Potato, Venison and Potato etc. It sounds like the food you have him on his working though, and there are many other good foods out there that are grain free and good for allergic dogs. But if he is an allergic dog you will need something to help treat the allergies.
Benedryl should help with the itching.

It has worked wonders for me when every thing else I tried just cost me a fortune and did not work. I would be happy to give you more information and show you pictures of results if you are interested. Just email me privately.

Thanks for your reply. his skin hasnt gotten any worse. It doesnt appear to get worse depending on the season and doesnt seem to be in any discomfort. We took him to the vet as soon as we noticed his little bald patches because we were concerned. The vet said it was likely allergies and not a reaction to bacteria or parasites. We actually tried the brand of food you mentioned, but our little guy got a really upset stomach from it and we didnt notice an improvement with his skin. the only thing that has helped is a creme rinse made by a company called aubrey (i think thats what its called) its all natural and you leave it on the skins for a few minutes and then wash it off. the spots have gotten smaller but he still scratches every once in a while which i guess is enough to create the hair loss. He isnt scratching excessively but obviously enough to cause some damage. We have tried a few different brands of food and we havent noticed any improvement. He is on raw food with consists of human grade raw salmon and some blended veggies. He only has half a white face so would he be more susceptabile to allergies?

I am sure you have probably read enough posts on this forum to where you know that bulldogs can be prone to allergies, especially if your dog is white.
I know this from experience in having an allergic dog and spending most of my time at an animal dermatologist.
I would stop the oatmeal shampoo and try bathing him in a medicated shampoo, like Chlorahexyderm. I would also try an allergy diet. I am not familiar with what you are feeding but I feed Natural Balance Fish and Potato. It is a limited ingredients diet, with no grains. I would also give Benedryl to help with the itching. If it continues then I would take the dog to the vets. He could need a short course of antibiotics, if it is a bacterial infection. Some dogs have environmental allergies, meaning they are allergic to grasses, trees, dust etc and certain times of the year are worse then others. That is what I dealt with when my dog had his allergies. So up until about the end of NOV. he would have breakouts. Then when the weather turned colder, he would improve, only to start up again at about the end of May and have issues until end of Nov. Every dog is different and some are not affected much. I hope this information helps you and I hope you can get some relief for your baby.
