If your dog sheds a lot it does not necessarily denote ill health. Dogs that spend a lot of their time indoors are exposed to electric lights and central heat and air which can throw off their normal shedding schedule that nature built in.

However, profuse shedding may have other causes like an unbalanced diet, a kidney or bladder infection or a parasitic ailment.

For shedding dogs, grooming is an important aspect in caring for your pet’s health. And you need the correct tools for that. Caring for your canine is like caring for a human child. While dogs have the natural instincts to fend for themselves, domesticating those entails extensive caring so that they can achieve their best health.

Shampoo Dogs: Dog shampoo can be a contributing factor to why your pets shed, or may be the answer to unravel your dog shedding problems. Too much shampooing may cause your dog's skin and fur to dry and therefore result to shedding. Using the right shampoo can condition your his/her hair, and therefore may prevent shedding too.

To choose the best shampoo for shedding dogs, medicated shampoos are usually given by veterinarians to dogs with skin allergies. A natural herbal dog shampoo is also a great option to improve skin and coat radiance. Oatmeal to shampoo dogs are mild and are best for sensitive skin. You may also elect to use a conditioner after shampooing to moisturize your shedding dogs' hairs.

The best dog shampoo is highly subjective, so it's best to try out small samples of different dog shampoos and see which type your best friend is most favorable of. Or you can consult your veterinarian to have some professional advice and suggestions.

One milestone in their lives is when they start shedding hair. Shedding is a normal part of a dog's life, especially for breeds with long hair. Shedding dogs are prone to health problems, both to themselves and to their owner. This can cause allergic reactions to the owner, and studies show that shedding dogs tend to be less healthy than those who are not shedding. Albeit a natural process, shedding dogs may be a sign that your canine is not having sufficient nutrients, or has poor grooming habits.

If your dog’s shedding leads to bald spots you should seek help from your veterinarian as soon as possible. All severe shedding conditions are either parasitic or non-parasitic. Parasitic means caused by parasites such as mites or fleas. Non-parasitic means conditions created by a hormonal imbalance and or poor diet, which can easily be treated with vitamins and a more controlled diet.

Eczema is a symptom of an underlying disorder, usually dietary, rather than a disease. In older animals and altered ones, it may be caused by a hormonal imbalance due to a change of body chemistry. The skin becomes scaly and the hair falls out in patches. You must correct the cause by hormone injections or a change in diet, usually by adding fat supplements of Vitamin A and E.

Eczema can also be caused by fleabite allergy, or a parasitic condition.

However, these bald spots usually appear suddenly and resemble lesions, or burns. To treat these, after veterinarian diagnosis, you must eliminate the fleas and use a local application of antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory medicines.

Bald spots can also be caused by mange. There are two types of mange, of mange, Sarcoptic mange or “Scabies”, which has a musty odor, often starts on the head and spreads to the ears, tail, the abdomen, and chest and under the front legs. Skin eruptions may take the form of red dots or blisters, then scabs.

Your veterinarian can provide medicated baths; generally sulfur preparations and anti-itch topically.
