Introduction
It is not only humans that suffer from hair loss due to different factors but pets also like dogs which suffer from it.

We will discuss the reasons for hair loss in dogs in the next chapter.
Reasons for dog hair loss
Fleas
The occurrence of fleas in dog’s hair is the single most common reason for dog hair loss. It is observed that the being of only a single flea can cause this problem also. A bite of the flea will trigger an intense itching in the dog and due to intense itching the dog begins to shed much hair. As a result the amount of hair decreases. The best treatment for fleas is application of a tropical flea control cream or lotion.
Canine Atopy
This condition refers to an allergic reaction in the dog due to which it begins to lose hair. Whereas in people it’s the respiratory system that’s most commonly subject to reaction, in the case of animals it is the skin. A dog’s skin may develop allergies because of a number of reasons, the chief amongst them being moving to a different environment. Hence it is necessary to treat your dog by applying soothing shampoos, anti inflammatory tropical ointments and bathing agents.
Hot Spots
It is one of the most common conditions in dogs with long coats. In this case, severe itching takes place on the skin and the skin becomes raw, inflamed and wet. This condition is cured with the help of a tropical cortisone cream or with an dose of anti inflammatory injections as well.
Ringworms
Ringworm’s a fungus that is transmitted by coming into contact with other dogs and other objects like combs. Ringworm is circular in shape. The hair breaks off in the areas that are affected with ringworms. Ringworm is normally treated with, griziofulvin fluconozole, itraconazole and topical iodine preparations.
Stress or boredom
Stress or boredom is also one of the most common causes for dog hair loss. It’s more widespread in dogs than in cats. Treatments include medicines like as chlomipramine, and taping of isolated areas with a protective covering.

Different types of hair growth prevention products
Shampoos
The right kind of shampoos should be used for preventing hair loss. The shampoos should not be made from harmful chemicals, but should be made from natural extracts like amla, hazel and nettle. The right kinds of shampoos are known to deep cleanse the pores and improve blood circulation in the follicles. This results in the growth of healthy hair full of bounce and shine.
Conditioners
Women should condition their hair at least once in two weeks with good quality conditioners. The conditioner performs the special task of cleaning your scalp and the pores from all the dust and other foreign particles that have settled over many days. The dust and foreign particles block the pores, as a result of which sweat accumulates and the hair becomes dirty. A good conditioner, as mentioned before cleanses all the pores and let’s them ?breathe? again.
Hair care formulas
Hair care formulas are generally used for thinning hair problems. It is often seen that thinning of hair leads to gradual hair loss that can turn permanent. Applying the right formula to your scalp improves blood circulation in the scalp and the follicles. The result is the growth of healthy hair and less chances of hair loss.
Dietary Supplements
The right kind of dietary supplements go a long way in preventing hair loss. The newer kind o dietary supplements in the form of pills contain all the necessary vitamins like vitamin B, E and A and also folic acid to prevent hair loss. In addition to preventing hair loss, these supplements are great for normal growth of the nails and skin.
Grooming Mist
Grooming Mist is a relatively new product for preventing hair loss. The ingredients in the hair grooming mist provide the necessary flexibility and strength to the hair. It also provides the necessary moisturizers to the hair and prevents the hair from becoming dry.
