Shedding?
« on: November 01, 2006, 02:33:18 pm »
Lucah is shedding so much I am wondering why he isn't bald yet!  I don't see any bald spots or anything but I can pull off hair pretty easily.

We have him eating Innova Large Breed puppy and for the most part it works out well.  But do I need to switch food again?  Has anyone else had this with their Mastiff? Is this just a puppy thing? 

Us and our furniture thank you for any help.

It is normal for puppies to shed their puppy fur to make room for coarser adult fur.

I would recommend daily brushing (good to reduce fur and also to make him comfortable being groomed, because that will be important when he is larger). One brush that people say works wonders is the furminator, which is pretty expensive but might be worth a try.
