Do strangers somehow seem to know you have a pet even before you tell them? Could it be because you’re always covered in loose pet hair? If you’re looking for a way to minimize your pet’s excessive shedding, we have great news! You don’t have to live with a layer of loose fur on your clothes, furniture, and floors any longer. Discover how one simple change to your pet’s bath routine can help alleviate problem shedding and restore your pet’s naturally beautiful coat.
Causes of excessive shedding in dogs and cats
Some pets are born shedders while others may experience excessive shedding due to varying circumstances. Certain dog breeds are known for almost constant shedding. These include popular breeds like Golden Retrievers, Pugs, Collies, and Malamutes. Likewise, long haired cat breeds may shed more often than short haired breeds. If your dog or cat seems to be shedding more than expected, there may be an underlying problem that can be solved.
Causes of excessive pet shedding include:
- Increase in exposure to sunlight or higher temperatures
- Underlying disease or hormonal imbalance
- Reaction to medications
- Fleas, mites or lice
- Allergies
- Dry, itchy skin
- Nutritional imbalances
- Anxiety or stress
How to control shedding
If your pet’s shedding has become troublesome, there are steps you can take to minimize the problem. First, a trip to the vet may be needed to rule out any underlying health issues. Second, be sure your pet is up-to-date on flea and tick protection. The itching caused by fleas is only part of the hair loss problem. Flea saliva is a leading cause of pet skin allergies, which also result in itching, skin irritation, hot spots and hair loss.
Once you have ruled out disease or parasite related causes, you’re ready to take the next steps in pet shedding control. Upgrading your pet’s diet may help reduce shedding in dogs and cats. Proper nutrition will improve your pet’s health right down to the hair follicles. Hypoallergenic pet food and foods with limited ingredients can help reduce allergic reactions that often result in itching, scratching and hair loss. You can also introduce Fish Oil and Omega 3 supplements to help nourish your pet’s skin and coat.
Proper grooming with the right tools and products can make a big difference in the amount of hair that stays on your pet and off of your furniture and clothing. However, bathing your pet too often and/or using the wrong products can actually make the shedding problem worse. Bathing your pet too frequently using a shampoo that is not specifically formulated to stop shedding may cause your pet’s skin to become dry and flaky, which can cause itching and even more hair loss.
Brushing your dog or cat regularly with a specially designed grooming tool will not only help keep your home cleaner but also helps to prevent your pet from ingesting hair when self-grooming, which could cause choking, hairballs and intestinal blockage.

I would love to try this on my three dogs.
My Shepard/Lab mix seems like she sheds year round! I need this to keep her shedding in control.
I have two furballs; a german shepherd lab mix and a long hair chihuahua. My big girl sheds really good twice a year with the seasons and has some minor shedding all year, but my little one has hair EVERYWHERE ALL THE TIME. It is a constant battle to keep our clothes and home clean. I would be so happy to be able to try this pet shampoo!!!!
Yes would love to try this out on our furbaby Shoka! Love him but hate the shedding!
I would love to try this as my girl is elderly and no longer able to keep herself clean, I have to give baths often
I have a bloodhound puppy…4 months, 48 lb short hair and omg does he shed! Who wouldve thought lol. Cant decide whats worse, the shedding or the drooling! Would love to try this product 🙂
I have a 100lb lab and 2 cats and they all shed – all year it seems. The lab is actually the worse – he constantly sheds and I have to bath him all year. In the summer in a kiddie pool and in the winter in our shower. I constantly brush him and it amazes me the hair that he loses. He has a beautiful coat though – very soft and healthy looking. The cats are not as bad but they do shed all year too. I have a hairy house it seems alot.. LOL – But I love my babies!!
My older dog’s shedding seems to have gotten worse. I’ve tried other shampoos to relieve shedding but they haven’t worked.
I would sure like to find one that helped.
such a pain most of the time
Our Golden Retriever sheds so much that you can always see hair blowing down the hallways even if I just swept/
We have a beautiful long hair black cocker spaniel and his hair is everywhere in the house. This
shampoo would really help.
Amazing how much hair my corgi sheds. Those little legs limit her, somewhat, I know she isn’t up on the stove and counter, but her hair certainly is. Brushing her outside, the bird nests are made with corgi hair….
This product could be the answer to my prayers because our dog sheds so much. It’s like sweeping up a tiny puppy every day. I hope to win a bottle of this shampoo and give it a try. Thank you!
I have 4 malteses who have pretty bad allergies and they shed a lot even with their medication. I would love to win this to help their coats look and feel better.
Dogs with a double coat shed like the dickens! This would come in handy!
great giveaway!
My Chihuahua Titan loves his massages and although he is short haired, it’s amazing the amount of shedding he produces!
I have a tweenie dashound and it is amazing how much she sheds. I don’t mind it that much, but my son and granddaughter are allergic and I think this product may help my situation. Thanks for the chance to win.
My older Boston Terrier rescue sheds and itches all day. Poor guy!
Tina very much needs the SHED-X Shed Control Pet Shampoo!
When you can fill a vacum canister up everytime you vacum it’s pretty bad.
we could really use this for Bonnie
We’ve got a long-haired and a short-haired dog. Immediately after I vacuum the house, I need to go back and spot clean anywhere they laid or scratched. Tufts of fur everywhere!
We have a pug who has both light and dark hairs, so no matter what we are wearing, the fur shows up! Would love a way to control it better!
I have a rescue pond hound dog that sheds so much she should be hairless! I use the brush regularly . Help is appreciated.
