When it is time to shed hair, owners are very upset because there are dog hair everywhere in the house. However, there are still many dog owners who are confused and do not understand what kind of shedding is normal and what kind of shedding should be done. Take the puppy to see the doctor. Let’s look at the season first. It is normal for dogs to shed their hair in spring because they need to replace their hair with new hair. Generally speaking, the loss of old hair is caused by the growth of new hair and pushing them out. If the puppy is losing hair one by one and the skin color is normal, it is normal shedding.

At this time, it is best for the owner to use a professional dog comb to help them comb it, so that the old hair can fall off quickly. Usually, the dog can complete shedding in 1-3 weeks. And if you find that the old hair is falling off one by one, and the skin there is ringworm, or there are many small red bumps, or the dog keeps scratching the skin somewhere, you should pay attention. This kind of hair loss is unusual, and you should take your dog to the hospital for examination as much as possible.
In addition, improper diet can also cause abnormal hair loss. Many dogs lose hair due to eating too much meat. This causes the dog's nutrition to be imbalanced and reduces the skin's resistance. Eating dog food on a daily basis can fully meet the needs of the dog's skin. Even during the moulting period, there is no need to supplement nutrients. Furthermore, repeated bathing of dogs can also cause hair loss. The original intention of bathing your dog frequently to maintain hygiene is good, but bathing your dog too much is not good. Because the dog's skin itself has a layer of protective oil, bathing all the time will damage the skin's own organization and maintenance capabilities. If your dog has fungal infection, washing it all the time will exaggerate the scope of the infection and cause large areas of hair loss. Only wash the dog's paws and belly every day, and then clean it completely every two or three weeks. Don’t use too much shampoo either. If too much shampoo is used and the dog's hair is too deep, it will be difficult to completely clean it. The shampoo remaining on the skin will also stimulate the dog's hair loss. You may also wish to give your dog a medicated bath regularly, and pay more attention to his diet during the change of seasons.
