any other staffie owners whose babies are quite sensitive?  I think my girl must be cos every year when she starts losing her slightly thicker 'winter' coat, her fur turns quite funny, leaving what I can only describe as snail trails down her sides....
It only seems to happen at around this time of year, so I'm maybe wrong by associating it with moulting?
Doesn't seem to bother her, and I know she's healthy in general, but just thought I'd ask if anyone else has noticed same?????

Im not sure what you mean ?
It's not something ive noticed on mine, does she end up with bald patches ?

well not so much bald but certainly thinner, and in a sort of squiggly line!  :eek:
Which was why I sort of tried to compare it to a snail trail.....  Its almost as if the top of her body has the thicker hair still and the bottom half is thinning (but only on the sides of her body)
I'm probably not explaining it very well!
She does seem quite sensitive with her skin, so I'm thinking more and more that a natural diet is the way to go.....
