Default Missing Fur

Question one of my dogs either stuck his head though a fence opening or got it stuck someplace and the fur under his eye was removed...How long does it normally take to grow back in? Its really not an issue immediately as he is not ready to show but just the missing fur is not pretty to look at!

short hair like that, you should start to see hair regrowth in about avg. 7-10 days. It usually takes a month more or less for it to be completely filled in giving no further irritation. Some grow faster,some slower.

Checkers lost the fur over her eye last year from a tick bite and it grew back inside of a month ... or at least enough so she didn't look like she'd had her eyebrow plucked!
