My 4 year old short hair dashhound is developing bald spots. I've been treating her for fleas, but I don't think she has any right now. What can I do to help her.

The best you can do is take her to the vet. It could be a skin condition, it could be stress, it could be fleas. We can't give an accurate diagnosis, only your vet can do that.
I hope everything's okay.

I agree with Alty! Take her to the vet. Many time skin conditions where there is hairloss can be a symptom of another serious internal problem, manifesting itself on the outside. As in humans, many skin conditions and abnormalities have an underlying problem or disease that needs to be taken care of.
