Re: shedding cycles for females?

Same here. I have had quite a few Labs and Goldens. They didnt shed any more before or after their heat cycles. I think maybe a lot of females come into heat in the spring which is when most dogs shed any ways? idk?

Re: For hard to keep dogs.

Healthwise is very grain heavy maybe thats why she gets loose..try a grain-free, Evo, Core & Canidae grain free are easy to find, and see how she does. She will eat a whole lot less, perhaps that will take the pressure off the stools and she will put on weight. They are rich but very high quality. ...

Re: For hard to keep dogs.

I have a very hard time keeping weight on Leena. She is currently eating Healthwise, but she is getting skinny on it. If I give her enough to keep weight on, she gets diarrhea from having too much food. She cant really tolerate any of the performance foods either..I think they are too rich.

Yes, getting him neutered is the best option if you dont want puppies. I am waiting a bit to get my female spayed as well.

I dont think the neutering will have any effect on his hunting. Five years old isnt too bad to be going under.
