[nagdu] shedding

[Julie J.]

My first thought is to contact your vet.  It could be some sort of 
health issue that is making him shed so much.

It could also be a seasonal sort of shedding thing too.  I have two dogs 
and they will shed small bits year around.  Then they will shed more in 
the spring and fall, although I have noticed that the amount of shedding 
changes from year to year, sometimes by quite a bit.

The vet would be able to rule out possible health problems though.
