Our lab is an enthusiastic stud (or would like to be.) A few months ago, when Jeddie was in season, I made the mistake of putting her next to Burns the Wonder Dog in the kennel--I should've left her inside. WELL. I noticed that Jeddie seemed to be losing her hair in patches-- a trip to the vet's told me that nothing was wrong: Jack did skin scrapings, etc. NADA. It was weird--hair was misssing near neck, near her croup. . . Then voila, it came to me--Burns was chewing and ingesting her hair, he was SO in love! LABRADORS!!!
