This is my first basset.
He is 6 months old now.. and yesterday, I took him first time to Dog Beach.
After we go home, I gave him a thorough bath and groom him..
I found there is some red pot on his belly that soon disappear the next day.
But, I notice he has been shedding like crazy.. Although he doesn't seem to be scratching or doing anything differently. He still eats fine..
But, i do notice he shed a LOT.. if you pet him, there will be hairs on your hand.
Now, this is my first basset..
Is this a normal phase? Is this the season for Basset to shed? or does the visit to the beach is the one causing him shedding?
So far no bald spots, no changes in behavior, no scratching... just tons of hair (a bit more than usual)..
Hair is actually quite shiny..
Please help.
Thanks
