I guess by "dirty" I mean she is so smelly and greasy. And no she hardly ever goes outside. We live in Iowa and she HATES being cold!!

The shampoo the vet gave us to try is NuSal-T. It has helped some with the itching, but the greasy, smelly stuff is still present.

Can you really use a human shampoo on yorkies? Our breeder was so against that I have never thought about it. A friend who owns miniature pins says she sometimes uses baby shampoo on her dogs so maybe that could help too. I am really at a loss for what to do...we have tried so many things.

And where would I get these derm caps?? Are they similar to the vitamin E/fatty acid capsules we were given by the vet?? Those didn't seem to help at all.

Thank you so much for your advice! This forum is great, and I am so glad to get advice from other yorkie owners. I will have to put some of our pictures out for you all to see!
