You may want to ask your vet about it since it is starting up again. It may require more medication, or you might just need to change his food.
Sounds to me like he is shedding.
It’s fall…so it’s probably shedding in preparation for winter. Unless he’s getting bald spots, everything sounds rather normal.
Brush him once or twice a day to remove the loose hair so it isn’t falling out so much all over the house. Ask the vet if there is something more that can be done. He may be suffering from dry skin from the medicine and there may be a cream or lotion that the vet can recommend.
sounds like the diseased hair from his skin problem is good.coming out… the medicine worked. new hair will grow back….use a soft bristle brush to stimulate the circulation in his coat to promote hair growth and get the dead hair out….
How long ago was he cured of the skin problem? Did you ask the vet about the shedding?
It sounds to me (non-professional pet lover) like this could possibly be an after-effect of the skin problem. Maybe his body is replacing dead skin with new skin and it will resolve itself.
Consult your vet, that would be the best thing. If you can’t afford more vet visits for this seems to be a non-urgent issue, try grooming him often with a soft brush to take away as much loose hair as possible before it can be lost on your items.
Try bathing him often too, to keep the old skin cells moving along, and go to the pet store for a doggy moisturizer. I’m sure there is such a thing, it would be with the shampoos. Just make sure you dry him well afterwards and keep him warm, these little dogs are prone to chill.
It sounds to me like he have Chihuahua pattern baldness. It is not uncommon for Chihuahua’s to lose their hair. However, I would take him back to your vet just to make sure that their isn’t something else wrong with him. It could be normal shedding, but it could also be that his skin problem is back again. Without seeing the dog, I can’t tell you for sure.
As it is cured all you have to do is give it a haircut and be patient, it’ll grow back!
dogs shed their summer coat this time of year to get ready for their winter coat they do the same in April or may for their summer coat
Git rid of the Chihuahua, but if you dont want to do that just shave all it’s hair off and them it won’t lose hair everywhere.
Try a different brand of dog food. Some brands have products especially made for shedding. OR Check the link below for some doggie shedding tips!
He just may be shedding. My dog’s hair did the dame thing. You can buy some stuff call, sulfate. It will help. Good Luck!
I have 2 Chihuahua’s and they do shed. Most dogs do shed certain time of the year and right now is one of them. To help with the shedding the most important thing is there diet they need to be fed good food only I feed my Chi’s Nutro Natural. If you change their food add it to the food you already have it is not good to go cold turkey with the old food. Regular store bought food is not good unless it is Purina. The other thing is to get some good shampoo and bath them once a month in like Oatmeal Shampoo you can go to your local pet store or on line and get some real good shampoo. Hope this helps…Good Luck!
give him a bath
change the food he is on to nutro’s lamb and rice for great skin and coat. stops off season shedding too. dont feed anything that says "chicken by products" this means beaks, feet, feathers, skin, all the parts people wont eat they sell as dog food and if a dog caught a real chicken he would not eat those parts!. makes them sick!!
***LMAO***!!!
*ALL DOGS SHED*!!!
ALL the time!!
There is NOTHING that you can put *IN* or *ON* ANY dog to stop shedding!!!
