Fur Pulling

[petkeeper]

Hi

I am not sure where to post this. As you know I have been having problems with Harley...but the last couple of day Rex has been pulling Harley's fur. He has a raw spot on his back I have been putting Vaseline on it to help the skin. The skin is pink but not broken. I can take a pick if that helps...just let me know! I was wonder how I get Rex to stop this and why he is doing it. I have also treated both with Hairball medicine just to be on the safe side....Rex for the fur chewing and Harely for the ISS.

Thanks in advance for your advice!!

Shannon and the problematic Buns!

Well, first of all, is it two bucks, two does, or a buck and a doe?

They are 2 neutered males...they are the best of buddies...I am just wondering what I can put on the spot that will help it and possibly act as a deterent. I have had the problem before but I am totally brain farting as to what I used it was a long time ago!!

Thanks

Shannon

I think that it is justexcessive grooming. I have a male flemish, and his 2 girlfriends groom him until he has bald spots also.
