Expert: English Bulldogs ( Marie ) e-mail me at mpmaltese@gmail.com - 8/8/2008

Question
I have a female english bulldog who is almost a year old.  I took her to the vet about a month ago and it seems like every since then she has been shedding HORRIBLY!  We brush her daily but it just doesn't seem to be getting any better.  Also, It seems if she has any kind of bedding in her room she pees on it.  When I take the bedding out she never pees on the floor but as soon as I put her bed back in it is soaked the next morning.  I know the logical answer is just to not give her a bed but I feel so bad that she is sleeping on hard ceramic tile!  Is this normal?

Answer
Hello Kelly - Sounds like she is marking her bed.  Very odd but some dogs will do this.  Just put a towel or small blanket down on the floor for her comfort.  She may not pee on this because it is just a towel.  Try it an see.  Also, pick up her water bowel after 8 pm.  Also, make sure she gets a potty break at 9 or 10 pm, before you go to bed.

Next, I have the answer for the shedding - here is a program for her:
all Natural, low cost and safe!

1.  Salmon oil - PURE salmon oil / give (1/2) teaspoon per day - mix in her food.

2.  Garlic ( Pure) shaker bottle of the garlic powder / this is great for your bullie and all natural.  ( give her 1/4 of a teaspoon per day mixed into her food)

3.  NuVET Plus - This is a Skin and coat healer and Immune system booster - This will fix this shedding mess... Give her 2 NuVET wafers per day for the first month.  After 30 days, you can go to
1 1/2 per day ...  You will need to break the wafers in 1/2s.
This is yum yum good and safe for her.  Call Joan and she can help you with the first order of NuVET Plus - Tell her the dosages I mentioned, she will help you with this:
Also, this is guaranteed to help the skin and coat OR your money back.

I will also work with you on food changes.  It would be better to do the supplements first and later on work on food changes.
