Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.
Subject: any suggestions? Thu May 16, 2013 10:40 pm
It has only happened once before and she doesn't do it all the time, but she bites the white fur at the end of her tail off every once in a while. I don't know why she does it. She is on a grain free diet and I don't think it's allergies as she doesn't do it very often. I think it might be boredom/seperation anxiety. She hardly ever is by herself but today was the first time in a while she was by herself for like 4 hours. It breaks my heart seeing the end of her tail all squared off where she pulled the tip of the fur out. Any suggestions?
Also: She hardly ever does it so I don't know if putting something that tastes bad on it would help too

Is she blowing her coat? because mine uses her teeth to get the extra fur out. Maybe a good brushing would help?
