I am sorry to hear about your pug. Photos of the areas you are describing may help give us more information. A thorough examination would be recommended including a skin scrape to check for mange mites, a fungal culture to check for ringworm, and cytology to check for bacteria or yeast overgrowth. There are many different possible causes for skin problems that you describe, and many can be treated with a variety of medications but we need to do testing to determine the cause.
