Many of my friends’ Huskies love shedding, especially Husky puppies, which shed particularly hard in the summer. When combed every day, a lot of hair will fall out, a small bag at a time, so that in less than a month, the husky puppies will have no down at all, leaving only the outer coarse hair. What should you do if your beloved Husky is losing hair?

Don’t worry, hair loss or hair loss is a common disease of Husky dogs. Below we will introduce to you some causes and treatments of Husky hair loss.

1. If it is a Husky puppy, first determine whether it is normal physiological hair loss of the puppy?

If it is a Husky puppy, it is generally normal to shed hair. Husky puppies will begin to shed their fetal hair after 3 months. It's okay if Xiaoha is experiencing summer for the first time. Generally, you need to observe it for a period of time to see whether the fur that the Husky puppy is losing is the layer of fluff underneath or the layer of long hair on the surface.

If the husky puppies lose their long plush hair together, it means that the husky puppies are losing their fetal hair.

At this time, we can buy a kind of powder called hair-beautifying powder for the Husky dog, and eat it in the dog food, which is better for the Husky's hair; if possible, it is also very good to give the dog some egg yolk and seaweed powder.

2. Observe whether the Husky has partial hair removal or full body hair removal?

If the Husky is losing hair all over the body, it should not be a skin disease; but if the Husky is losing hair locally, then you should pay attention to whether it is a skin disease. Husky dogs sometimes scratch themselves because of itchy skin, thus damaging the skin, allowing bacteria to invade and multiply, causing infection.

Generally speaking, we can peel off the hair in the areas where Husky dogs have severe hair loss and carefully check the condition of the skin to see if there are parasites, mites or fungi. If you find red spots or small red bumps, you can basically diagnose it as mites. Take your dog to the hospital for an injection of ivermectin, once a week, and it will be cured in basically three weeks.

If other skin abnormalities occur, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible to diagnose the cause of the Husky's hair loss in order to determine a treatment plan.

3. Other factors that cause Huskies to lose hair

1. Excessive salt intake will cause husky dogs to lose hair.

2. Dogs are deficient in vitamins and minerals.

3. Natural environments such as sunlight and temperature will also affect the growth of dog hair. If the little husky growsNot being exposed to sunlight for a long period of time and being kept indoors for many years will also cause slight hair loss throughout the year.

4. If the Husky is losing hair all over the body, we should pay attention to the following situations:

1. Do not use bath liquids other than those specially designed for pets to bathe your Husky, and do not wash them too frequently;

2. Don’t stay in the house every day, get out in the sun more and exercise, but don’t get too much sun;

3. Another aspect is that your Husky lacks the care of your family, causing the Husky to suffer from separation anxiety. Then the dog may also chew the hair on its own legs. At this time, spending more time with the dog to comfort it, or taking some dog and cat gentleness tablets will make a big difference.

If you get rid of these bad habits, generally speaking, the phenomenon of Husky hair loss will be relieved. If obvious hair loss still occurs after a period of time, you need to go to the hospital for diagnosis. It may be fungus or other types of dermatitis.
