welshwizard 33 Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Hi there people, please can anyone give me some advice. I have a Bull bitch who had a litter of pups about three months ago, she has started losing her coat, and obviously with her not having much coat to start off with she doesn't look too clever, any ideas what I can give her to get her coat back. Thank you. Quote Link to post

surrey lass 12 Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 as others say could be mange or a hormonal imbalance due to having pup's i would take her along to your vet to get her checked out as she might just need a mange wash or an hormone injection Quote Link to post
Hannah4181 260 Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 It is very normal for a bitch to suffer fur lose after whelping and rearing a litter. Often it is just the hormones regulating. A good quality balanced diet should be enough. If the bitch is aggrevating the bald areas herself, then maybe maleseb shampoo or a vet trip to be on the safe side. Quote Link to post

Good Advice, what bedding is she on? Lice can cause significant hair loss aswell, so get her checked out and change all bedding. ATB with her. Quote Link to post

Ginny Spinner 455 Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 benzyl benzoat, best stuff you just rub it on the affected areas, used it on greyhounds before and it sorts them right out. You can get it from most chemists Quote Link to post
