Grooming Question

Missjoy · 06-20-2007, 03:16 PM

I have a question about Maggie's coat. Recently it has started shedding with big chunks of fur coming out. The fur is always white and soft - it seems to be her undercoat. She is looking a little raggity and her coat is not as nice a colour as it used to be - seems to be because of this fur coming out. Should I be brushing her with a special brush to strip the undercoat - or should I be looking at her health and food?

Any opinions are very welcome
