coverdogs 888 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 hi lads i think this could be down to stress, i have been keeping terriers a long time and this hase never happened to me until last year. i built new kennels and runs for the terriers there are about 2 1/2ft wide x 6 ft long 4 runs together 1 large kennel diveded by 1/2 ply, and the 2 bitches i bred since have started to loose hair a couple of weeks before they are ready to pup, i think its because they can hear and see the other terriers so close to them.i move the bitches a week before they are ready to pup into a barn and they all do well, it just dosent look good when people are vewing the pups. oh and these bitches are related by the way one is a black bitch and the other is a lakey type bitch , dont know if this might have something to do with it. hope you get sorted soon iwan.atb coverdogs Quote Link to post
