Hot spots can be a skin infection such as bacterial, allergy, fleas or mites...
My vote is fleas or mites because 4 of your dogs have it...
1.5 cc''s of 1 percent ivomec under the skin and then 5 to 7 days another cc and again another cc a week later and problem solved for all dog mites...my first thought is leaning towards mites...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...

I thought it was boredom at first cuz we just started our hog season, but they werent doing much all summer and didnt have any, but now I realize its fleas or mites, Im leaning towards fleas because I know they have some, they usually dont have any, and I noticed one of them scratching a bunch, thanks Ruben! Im going to give them some meds tomorrow

Where are the sores located at, might also look into seeing of any type of formula might have been changed up on your feed at the mill...

That's the easiest and probably cheapest route for flea control. Figure up what you'll have invested in time and fuel going to get all the stuff to treat your dogs and yard to control the fleas and the time you have in actually administering the remedies and repeating them when necessary, all that can be fixed with pill....

I along with two friends of mine all had a few dogs who had sores on their feet and wrist/ankle area, could never get good weight on those dogs, finally broke down and brought one to the vet and before he pulled any kind of test he said it was hookworms, sure enough when he pulled a fecal the dogs was eat up with hook worms, we all started giving pyrantel poamate and with in a month all the sores had cleared up and the dogs really blew up ok weight...
