Remedy For Flaky Skin?


eve

Recommended Posts

Can anyone recommend anything that is good for flaky, dandruff-like skin? Maisie (15yr old staff/collie cross) is shedding nearly as much skin as she is hair at the moment! It doesn't seem to be itching or annoying her at all. She's had it for over a month now and the shampoo we got from the vet hasn't helped.

All depends what's causing the flaky skin.

 

Did you change her food / give new treats / change washing powder/ get new carpets/etc, etc..............

 

Adding some fish oil to her diet may help or Evening primrose oil.

No, there's no change to her food or treats. As she has only got a few teeth she's quite limited in that respect, anyway. :laugh: and I add a bit of tuna, liver or chicken to her dinner. No change to any cleaning products at all and we only have carpet on the stair and landing. I didn't realise that you could give Evening Primrose Oil to dogs - I'll give that a try.
