Fine/thin fur on cocker

Recommended Posts

My cocker is 13 months old and his training is coming on well. However I am concerned that his fur his extremely fine. He also has little of it. On his belly and chest you can quite easily see his skin through his fur. He does suffer with nettle stings quite badly and I worry that this is because of his lack of/thin fur.

 

Is this unusual or will it thicken with age?

 

Cheers

My Brittany has fine hair on his belly and develops a small bare patch on it,but it is because he will crawl under the tightest gaps at the bottom of gates and fences when out shooting,so he wears a little bald patch about the size of a golf ball,doesn't bother him even when he gets cuts and scrapes on it.could be yours is squeezing into tight and low places while hunting and has worn a small bare patch.
