Ask the vet - Dog

My dog sheds a lot, is that normal?

Vet at FirstVet answers:

Many dogs normally shed all year round. It is not normal if your dog also is itchy or licking itself a lot, has developed a rash or bald spots. If your dog suffers from any of the aforementioned symptoms you should contact a veterinarian. Brush you dog's coat regularly to prevent too much fur collecting indoors from normal shedding.
