If your dog is noticeably loosing hair, then it's usually a sign of a health problem. While some breeds are naturally hairless, such as the Chinese crested, or have very thin, fine hair, like a chihuahua, most breeds are supposed to have an even coat of hair over most of the body. Fortunately, most hair loss problems can be diagnosed and treated and the hair will return. Here are some common reasons why your dog might lose its hair.

Just like humans, good oral hygiene is extremely important in dogs in order to maintain good overall health. If a dog's teeth are neglected, he can develop serious oral issues that can be painful and lead to loss of teeth and expensive vet bills to treat the problems. If you are a dog owner, the best thing that you can do is be proactive about caring for your dog's teeth. Luckily, keeping your dog's teeth in good condition is not overly difficult or complicated.
