Question
Hello: I have the American bulldog, male, 8 month old, white, green eyes. he is healthy but always lose  a lot of hair, I shower him every 2 weeks, is not under sun,or grass, on cleaned area,  have all vaccine, and I put a lot of water, you don't see any spot for hair that he lose but you can see the hair for all the place. I change the food, and shampoo but the dog continued with the same problem

Answer
Reina,

If your dog is scratching as well as losing hair, you should have a vet take a look at him.

Even if he is not scratching, it would be wise to have a vet look at him, especially if you believe his hair loss is more than normal.

Otherwise, I would continue to try different dog foods.  You could also try just brushing him and not bathing him so often.

Hope this helps,
