| If there is no fleas it’s probably allergies not dry skin and the only way to make it better is an allergy medicine.

YT 2000 Club Member | Dog food I would see if the food is causing itching. My Jojo was itching. I changed his food and rubbed some coconut oil on his itchy leg. Also get shampoo. My vet told me to use hexaderm max shampoo. It helped. Right now he is eating lifes abundance dog food that I ordered on line. Real good dry food. Still using hills id wet food. Will change that. Hope this helps. |

YT 2000 Club Member | Dog food I had an itchy poodle and spent over 1,000 bucks to see a dermatologist vet. He said put her on a venison diet. Her skin got better. Some dogs are allergic to corn. My friends Yorkie is allergic to poultry. I would look into changing the food. I did read where some dogs itch on royal canin. Wouldn't hurt to check food out. |
