he could also just be going through the coat change early, but i would have him checked.

Good news. Vet said definitely loosing his puppy cost. He had a full exam and he checks out great. I guess we will continue to use the swifter and vac a little while longer on our floors. Just thankful we have all hard wood and no carpet
