Typically, dogs shed their fur twice a year – seasonal shedding periods occur in spring and fall.
But it also happens that a pet sheds its fur out of season.
Let's find out why this happens and what to do in such situations.
1. "Off-season" shedding can occur if the four-legged friend is kept in an apartment in winter and does not get enough walks. As a result of this situation, the seasons do not switch.
There is only one way out - increase regular exercise and increase the physical activity that your pet receives.
In addition, move your pet's bedding away from radiators and don't forget to regularly ventilate the rooms.
2. Poor nutrition and lack of water can also cause hair loss.
To stop hair loss, review your dog's diet. Make sure your pet gets meat or fish and vitamins every day.
A bowl filled with clean water should be kept freely accessible at all times.
3. If we are talking about a female, then hair loss can be caused by periods of pregnancy and lactation.
In this case, the owner is responsible for timely combing of the pet and the use of vitamin and mineral supplements.
Earlier we talked about why cats are afraid of vacuum cleaners.
