How to Prevent Skin Disease in Shih Tzu Bear Hamsters
The Shih Tzu bear hamster has long, beautiful fur but is prone to skin disease. Causes include wrong bedding (wood shavings, paper pellets) that mats the coat, and urine left on the fur causing hair loss and sores. Treat by clipping and cleaning the spot, then applying an antifungal or antibacterial medicine with an Elizabethan collar. Prevent it with a roomy, dry, cool cage, cat-litter or tissue bedding, litter training, and regular sand baths.

Feed a simple diet with cooled boiled water and avoid watery produce that upsets its weak gut; groom its long coat, keep the home dry to prevent skin disease, and block its clever escape routes.
