Why does my dog shed so much fur every day even though i brush him?
Okay, so I thought that I was going to have this problem, but it resolved itself. My dog is a terrier beagle mix and when I go thim from the pound the fur was literally flying off of him everytime he got up. It was so bad that the first day I literally took a baseball sized mound of fur off of this tiny 13 pound dog! By now the problem has subsided, I started him on an omega oil rich diet. This seems to have fixed things significantly. Also, I have heard (though not tried it) that if you take a wet paper towel and wipe down the dog once a week, this will dramatically reduce shedding. If the change in diet doesn’t work along with the towel trick, don’t give up. It may just take around 3 to 4 weeks for the problem to reduce itself to a noticeable degree. Best of luck to you and your doggie!
