| The Itchies! My baby boy has got the itches somewhat bad enough for me to think it really must be annoying him. I rolled him over last night to look at his belly and legs and he has really dry skin. She is not flaky but just dry and somewhat pinkish colored. I bath him once a week with CC products and spray baby leave on detangler on his coat afterwards - does any one else have any suggestions on any thing I can do or give him so he itches less? I was thinking of going to the health store to get some anti-itching shampoo and conditioner - do you think that would be worth a try? Thanks!

also - When you bath him - rinse really really well - and try leaving out the Baby Spray on and just let him go a few days and see if he stopps scratching... | |

Thanks V - I am going to run up to Petsmart today and see if they have it. I can walk to my petsmart - if they do not I have a petco about 20 minutes away. I will let you know how he does.

| Does your food have corn in it that can cause the itchies too. More than anything I think it is the dryness of this time of year. I know I am dry and itchy

| Well, you probably remember how bad Hobbs had the itches and his skin was so flaky!!!!!! I started using this 4 in 1 shampoo & conditioner which has Emu Oil in it and his dry skin completely cleared up. I made a thread about it: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/sho...=High+Cascades |
