Beagle Fur

Question
Hi. I've a beagle of one year and three months old, and he's having this huge fur problem, that's making me crazy. Even though he have short hair, he's always missing fur, too much fur, in summer, in winter... if I hug him, all my clothes get full of fur, and also, I'm alergic!! So the vet told us that we give him some vitamins, and it helps a little, but it's not enough!! even if I do the grooming... and the baths...
I love my dog so much, but I don't know what to do. When he was a puppy he had scabies, actually he was sick before living with us, but we didn't know. He get well, cause we really take care of him, but maybe the scabies are related to the fur problem??
HELP!!

Answer
If you think this shedding is related to the original problem, then this is not a grooming problem but a medical problem. Massive hair loss and and bald patches are also medical.
Your allergies are a problem only you can decide how to handle.
Sorry but this is really a veterinary problem.
