There are no bald patches. It seems to be a case of malting but it never stops. There's hair everywhere. The dog in question is a cross between a Chow and a Retriever.She is a year old and is very active. I also have a cockerspaniel, i'm not sure whether its just the one or both. He is 8yrs old.

If your dog's hair is falling out more than it normally does when shedding, it could be a thyroid problem and you'll need to take him to the vet for a check on his thyroid. Just a thought because I went through he same thing once with my lab, and it turned out to be her thyroid. I'm not saying that it is, but it can be a possibility.
More than likely, it's normal shedding. Both labs and chows have really thick undercoats.

Retrevers are know shedders. It's probally just the weather change (going from a summer coat to a winter coat). No bald spots, no worries.

It is both of them. We have 2 dogs and hair all over the place

Retrievers shed a lot, and Chows have a natural undercoat. The mix of the two is the problem. Your dog is prolly constantly shedding his undercoat. Daily brushing (sometimes morning AND night) should help. If she starts scratching or you see bald spots, talk to your vet.
good luck!

Your dog may have something wrong with it. If you say the hair is falling out,but i know dogs shed there coats in different weathers. Hes 8yrs old i would take him to the vet, try not to worry to much it may be nothing

Shedding can sometimes be helped by giving your dog Omega Fatty acid supplements.
The best way to reduce shedding is to either have your dog professionally groomed on a regular basis, or to brush them thoroughly yourself daily.

Most dogs shed.

Chows and Retrievers both "Blow their coats" usually twice a year, and the undercoat gets everywhere. Is this the lighter, softer hair, or is the main coat falling out?(longer, coarser hair). The solution, if this is the case, is to either brush your dog twice a day with an undercoat rake, (you can get them at most pet supply stores), for about a week. If you bathe and blowdry your dog, it will speed up the process, and loosen up the shedding hair faster. (BUT, you have to THOROUGHLY dry the dog!) Otherwise, you'll both get frustrated. OR, take her to a groomer, and have the bathing done. You will still have to at least daily brush her for a few days, 'till it's done. Females seem to be the worst for this.
IF it's the outer coat that is falling out, I would suspect it could be a food allergy- what kind of food are you feeding her? You get what you pay for, in dog food. let me know!

Does he itch a lot? He could have mange or some other skin disease.

It could be just the normal shedding, or there could be a more serious medical problem. Mine lost her hair in many spots, she had an auto immune disease. You could wait and see what happens, and if it doesn't get better just take her to the vet to be on the safe side.

I love my retrevers!!!!!!!!! They are sheaders though! Go to the vet if it gets worse though!

oh. it's probably the aged one. I just had my 14 yr. old put down. She had amny problems but her hair was also falling out like crazy. she was not absorbing nutrients, her skin was bad. There is not a lot you can do. The aging process comes to them too. Sorry, I thought you said 18 yrs. old. no, it may be you need to give extra vitamins and oil, like a little olive oil on food. Also, brewers yeast tablets are good for their coats. sorry. Also, believe it or not most dogs are allergic to beef which is in most dogfood. Try lamb and rice and see it it improves.

Your dog may be shedding, and that is natural for any type of animal with a lot fur, so what you can do is go out and buy this comb like product called the Shed end-er, and what this will do is if the dog is still shedding, it will get the remaining fur, and will give your dog's coat a healthy shine.
