You have noticed that your Bully Kutta loses a lot of hair. In the same way, you are worried about your Bully Kutta, you keep picking up Bully Kutta hairs, brushing your clothes, shaking the carpets… Let’s see below why your Bully Kutta loses its hair and how to reduce this problem.
Your Bully Kutta is losing its hair – Why?
Your Bully Kutta loses its hair – Shedding periods
Shedding process for Bully Kutta is characterized by a greater loss of hair during 2 periods (spring and autumn). So there’s no need to worry if your Bully Kutta loses its hair in early spring and autumn. It is a natural phenomenon that allows the Bully Kutta to coat itself with a coat that is more adapted to the upcoming season.
But as the life of the Bully Kutta has changed from the time they stayed outdoors all day, the shedding system has also changed. Indeed, the fact that the Bully Kutta stays all day in a heated dwelling all year round disrupts the natural phenomenon of shedding. This way, your Bully Kutta may lose its hair permanently. This is called false shedding.
Your Bully Kutta loses too much hair – Pathologies
If you notice a sudden loss of hair in large quantities, if your Bully Kutta is often itchy and you have identified that it is not a moult, it could be a medical problem.
Indeed, parasitic diseases (scabies, fleas…) cause inflammation and “pruritus” (Bully Kutta which itches) and can lead to hair loss. Your Bully Kutta may also have an internal parasite, fungal, bacterial infection or any other pathology.
In this case, I advise you to quickly show your Bully Kutta to his veterinarian.
Your Bully Kutta loses its hair – What to do?
Control hair loss with regular brushing
By brushing your Bully Kutta regularly, you can help remove dead hair before they fall out. This way, your interior will be better preserved and your Bully Kutta will have a more beautiful coat. In addition, it is the way to check if your Bully Kutta does not have fleas, ticks or lesions.
The most powerful brush on the market is the Furminator.

Reduce hair loss by adopting a healthy diet
Diet can affect the health as well as the coat quality of your Bully Kutta. For your Bully Kutta to have a remarkable coat, its diet must be of good quality, rich in good fatty acids and vitamins. So be careful about the quality of the food you give him (see our article on what are the best croquettes for Bully Kutta?).
In addition, there are several ways to supplement your Bully Kutta’s diet to limit hair loss. Vitamins, fatty acids, omega 3 can be added to your Bully Kutta’s regular diet. Some add salmon or rapeseed oil, others give special food supplements for a healthy coat.
Reduce hair loss with brewer’s yeast
Brewers Yeast Dog Chewables
It is the most effective food supplement (widely known and used in Europe). This product is a stimulant for hair growth and quality because it promotes the synthesis of keratin (hair protein) and slows down sebum production (reducing hair fat). Brewer’s yeast makes the coat shine and reduces hair loss.
Prevent hair loss by providing good hygiene
If it is recommended to clean your Bully Kutta to ensure good hygiene, too frequent baths could have negative consequences on hair loss.
A recommendation: Do not bathe your Bully Kutta more than once a month. The skin of your Bully Kutta could be weakened.
