| Some deffo good ideas. Still like the dyson tool for Brogan tho I could knit a pair of socks out of his fluffings  Caius still tries eating his puppy brush even if he's half asleep when I start brushing  |

| | Quote: | Question: My dog is shedding too much hair, it’s a problem. What can I do?
“I have always taken great pains with the care and grooming of my Siberian Husky, making sure that he is immaculate at all times. But when I brushed him today though, I got two full buckets of hair. I know dogs are supposed to shed, but never have I seen anything like this. He actually looks bald! Can you tell me why?”
Answer:
As they say in life, you can overdo any good thing. If you keep him “immaculate at all times” then I would assume that his diet is also the very best, probably supplemented with vitamins and minerals that his system really doesn’t need.
This happens all too often. Owners who have nothing but good intentions run out and try to do everything possible to make sure their dogs and puppies are in good health. They buy all of the supplements, they attempt dog training from every angle possible, and they just plain go overboard on care – often mentally or emotionally debilitating the animal is some way.
But I digress – about the shedding issue, these types of haircoat problems can usually be traced to one of the following three causes:
1) Parasites
2) Dietary deficiencies
3) Hormonal imbalances
Only a veterinarian can properly diagnose which of these three things may be causing your dog’s problem. Schedule an appointment immediately and be sure to write a detailed list of all supplements and food intake that your dog has had over the last several months.
The importance of diet in relation to shedding problems in dogs can’t be overstated. In fact, ensuring your dog is being fed the correct diet has a bearing on everything from their weight, general health and vitality and even the way they behave. |
this made me LMAO - its a husky they shed - they blow their undercoat - looks like sum1 didnt do their homework - thanks for posting this - i HAVE to go and share it on the husky forum  |
