Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] The Weird Shedding Problem



Many people on the List have mentioned that their dogs are shedding
excessively this year.  I have a bitch who always blows her coat
about 4-6 weeks before going into season.  This time she *really*
blew her coat -- like I've never seen before.

While at the American Sieger Show this past weekend, I talked to many
people who told me that their dogs have been blowing their coats like
crazy.  The coat will start coming back in and then they blow it
again.  Or, they shed constantly for weeks.  Or, like my bitch, they
blow their coat completely in a matter of days.

I wanted to blame commercial dog food, but most of the people I've
talked to are *not* using the same brand of dog food and a few feed
raw.  Also, they are from many different parts of the country.  I
don't know what is causing this.  Perhaps it is some additive common
to most commercial dog food, or unusual weather phenomena, or
something in the air???

I don't know, but I'm not going to look for another brand of food at
this time.
