Coat change for the worse

[Jeanette]

Hi, is it normal for a bitch's coat to become dry and brittle during a season, if so, is there anything I can do about it i.e. supplements.  If it's not down to being in season, think I may have to change her diet.

some bitch's coats can and do go dull during a season, and some loose coat ( i'm assuming this is what you mean by brittle, coat should'nt be breaking as such) during a season, but some can loose coat,( if that makes sence). it will pick up after season has finished, but can take time.
i'm not a great believer in supplimenting , as  complete dogs food should have everything a dog needs in it, as for the food, what food suits one dog, does'nt mean it suits all dogs.

Try giving her some oily fish-suggest mackrell fillets in sunflower oil

Must have been dead puppy coat as I've pulled it all from her as was coming out easy and she looks fine.
