I own 2 dogs, they ussually go out to play with my neighbours but everytime they see some other dog(s) they start barking and attack that dog...
So the problem is, my dog was biten behind his neck causing an amount of fur to drop off or maybe it had been pulled off during the fight, so will his fur grow back !?!

Yes his fur will grow back!! Depending on the amount that is missing, and if it broke skin. If it didnt break the skin, make sure you put sunscreen on it when he is outside, or as soon as the skin has grown back. If it broke skin, just make sure you keep the area clean to avoid infections. Also watch the area for insect bites, and other irritation. Keep the area clean for a while. But dogs can loose patches of fur and recover from it rather quickly. It may take a while for it to grow back, but it will given time. My dogs love to wrestle with eachother, and have been known to get a little more aggressive than they should and end up pulling eachothers hair. It always grows back, no longer than if we take them to the groomers and they gets shaved a little to close. OHHH AND YOUR DOGS HAIR SHOULD START GROWNING IN MUCH THICKER AND FASTER IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS AS IT GETS ITS WINTER COAT. Once the weather cools down it will prob end up with more fur than it had before the fight. LOL

Absolutely. Just keep the wound clean and infection free and he should be fine. After all fur is only hair and it will grow back.

dont listen to niteshipper no idea, the fur on my dogs back grew back after one of my other dogs bit him but it takes quite a while depending on the dogs furr mine is a jack russell so his furr is quite coarse were as some dogs that have to be trimmed or shaved will grow back quicker

MOST LIKELY. I THINK IT DEPENDS ON THEIR FUR AND HOW LONG OR SHORT IT IS AND HOW EXTENSIVE THE HAIR LOSS IS. IF YOU ARE REALLY WORRIED CALL A VET AND ASK.
