How much should an OEB shed?

A month ago mommy and daddy switched my food because I had allergies. Since then I've stopped sneezing and am scratching less and less, but I'm still shedding like crazy. Anyone who pets me ends up covered in my pretty orange hair. Do OEB's generally shed a lot, or is this a sign that I've got a bigger problem?

i think it's pretty normal for a short-haired dog like bullies.
Orson sheds quite a bit too, and hes on a great diet. If i brushed him with a "zoom groom"
every other day, i promise he wouldnt be a shedding machine...but who has time or wants to
brush your dog that much. laugh out loud

As long as you have switched the diet and it's been 4-6 weeks it probably is normal. Did you have a skin test done...to check for a bacterial infection like staph? That may cause loss of hair as well but usually that is spotty and comes out in clumps.
