Just a bit worried, and wonder if it could be a sign of metabolic problems for example.
She has moulted heavily in previous years, at the change of seasons. This spring her coat is a bit duller than usual, though not "staring". The house is worryingly free of dust bunnies - nothing comes off when I groom her with her favourite rubber curry comb (which normally brings the hair off in huge clumps).
I would normally ask the vet about this, but he only wants to see emergencies at the moment. As soon as the confinement is over she'll be seeing the vet anyway for a limp she's had for two months (vet has seen video and says it can wait). I have not spoken to him about the moulting as it has only begun to worry me today after grooming her and getting nothing!
Thanks if anyone can give me their thoughts!
(She eats Royal Canin Large Dog Neutered, and takes a fish oil supplement since last summer when she suffered from a very stubborn case of dermatitis that required steroids to treat).
