At
this time of year, you may notice your pet shedding profusely. Spring and warm
weather is on the way and your pet is slowly but surely releasing their winter
coat. This can be an irritating time for you as it will feel like you can’t
clean the hair up fast enough, but please remember it can also be a bit
irritating for your pet too!
The loss of your pet’s winter coat can cause them
to scratch a lot as their hair comes out sometimes in chunks. To help ease the
process and make them feel better (and look better!) we recommend brushing them
daily to loosen the hairs.
Please
remember that seeing bald patches is NOT normal and could be a sign of a more
serious condition. If you notice this or any rashes or skin irritation, please
schedule a visit with us right away.
