Sugar is Shedding a Bit
Posted by Kimberly on 18th June 2009
My mother’s dog, Sugar, is a Westie-Poo (West Highland White Terrier – Poodle cross).
She doesn’t regularly shed, but as she’s gotten older, I think she loses a bit more hair than she used to.
Being a white dog, it is espeically noticable in a few of our rooms with dark colored carpet, causing us to vacuum at least every other day!
Terriers, typically, don’t shed. They may lose some hair here and there as us humans do, but nothing more.
However, when you get into terrier cross breeds, they may very well carry those genes from a breed that sheds and lose a lot more hair than a typical purebred terrier would.
I went through the Dinovite solution questionnaire and got a specific report just specifically geared towards Sugar’s problems.
Dogs that shed excessively, or if they stink or are itching and scratching, the solution may be fixing a small deficiency in their diet, often caused by the fact that vitamins, healthy bacteria and other nutrients are lost during the processing of most commercial dog foods.
Simply adding what their missing should solve the problem.
Do what I did! Go through the solutions center at Dinovite.com to get a personalized solution for your dog or each of your dogs. Find out what your dogs are missing in their diet.
