Hair help: Hi I have a 1 year old lab and his hair is thinning. - Help.com

Hi I have a 1 year old lab and his hair is thinning.

Summer weather has started in Dallas and he is shedding and his hair is thinning in areas like his shoulderblades. Is this normal in the summer?

And take your lab outside and brush him a lot. That way he sheds less in the house.
