In the same way, you are worried about your Villano de Las Encartaciones, you keep picking up Villano de Las Encartaciones hairs, brushing your clothes, shaking the carpets… Let’s see below why your Villano de Las Encartaciones loses its hair and how to reduce this problem.

Your Villano de Las Encartaciones is losing its hair – Why?

Your Villano de Las Encartaciones loses its hair – Shedding periods

Shedding process for Villano de Las Encartaciones is characterized by a greater loss of hair during 2 periods (spring and autumn). So there’s no need to worry if your Villano de Las Encartaciones loses its hair in early spring and autumn. It is a natural phenomenon that allows the Villano de Las Encartaciones to coat itself with a coat that is more adapted to the upcoming season.

But as the life of the Villano de Las Encartaciones has changed from the time they stayed outdoors all day, the shedding system has also changed. Indeed, the fact that the Villano de Las Encartaciones stays all day in a heated dwelling all year round disrupts the natural phenomenon of shedding. This way, your Villano de Las Encartaciones may lose its hair permanently. This is called false shedding.

Your Villano de Las Encartaciones loses too much hair – Pathologies

If you notice a sudden loss of hair in large quantities, if your Villano de Las Encartaciones 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” (Villano de Las Encartaciones which itches) and can lead to hair loss. Your Villano de Las Encartaciones may also have an internal parasite, fungal, bacterial infection or any other pathology.

In this case, I advise you to quickly show your Villano de Las Encartaciones to his veterinarian.
