| Biogroom oatmeal. also check if your yorkie has any type of allergy? does his food have corn, wheat or soy in it? Those are typical allergens. You can also try "Missing link" it's a supplement with omega 3s. or try salmon oil, or if your dog isn't prone to pancreatitis, try coconut oil, orally or topically.

| I agree with capt_noonie on the omega 3 supplements. They really do work. Onyx had the same problem. I just made sure I used soap free shampoos(as they tend to dry out the skin) and gave him his omega 3 supplements. Over a couple of weeks his coat started to improve and even thicken. ^_^
