| Shedding yorkie!!!!!! As you know, Silk is prego and has 15 days to go. i know they shed some hair on their belly but I am finding huge balls of hair everywwhere and when I brush her it is coming off in hunks from all over. Her bed is covered with short hairs from her belly as i expected only not this bad. But as for the hair she is losing from the rest of her body, I didn't think yorkies shedded. My other two aren't shedding but they also don't have the long, thick coat that she has. Any thoughts/ Should I be concerned. She goes to the vet next week for her X-rays so I can ask then. Thanks |

| Sounds like a harmone thing and could also be related to her throid. I have hypothyroidism and my hair shed all the time - very day. I am lucky and have a lot of hair and more grows back, so it doesn't show. When a bitch is pg - her body goes through a lot of changes and different for each one. |
