Ok my lab has now been on rimadyl for about a month, and has started to shed like crazy, anyone ever had this problem!! or a fix, not sure its the rimadyl, as I have not been taking him for a swim in a while, and I think that always helped on kepping shedding down,
but open to suggestions!

I doubt it's the rimadyl. I know this is the time of year when mine start shedding like crazy and then put on their winter coats. Maybe the swimming hid it in the past for you ... I know if I happen to give them a bath while they are shedding it washes a TON of hair away.
