2. Physiological hair moulting. Dogs will undergo physiological hair moulting when they are 3 to 6 months old. Usually, the fetal hair can be completely shed at 8 or 9 months of age.
3. Unbalanced nutrition. Unbalanced nutrition will cause hair loss in dogs.
4. Abnormal endocrine hair loss. Dog’s hair growth is controlled by the body’s endocrine and nervous systems. Some diseases, psychological stress, long-term anxiety, nervousness, and fear will all lead to negative effects on the dog’s hair.
Treatment methods for dog hair loss:
