I bath her in Minksheen and NO Conditioner. I have resorted to spraying her down with the water for about 5 mins to make sure there is no residue of soap left on her. The main area that effects her is under her arm pits and behind her ears. Once bathed, I have to apply Skin Works by the Coat Handler, it's the only cream that seems to help her areas.
I don't have anything else to blame it on, I just think she has dry skin or environmental allergies. Also her eyes water and get globs of clear goop ALL the time. |
Poor baby!
It really must be some type of environmental allergy....or either just dry skin as you said. I have no idea what it is with Tatum though. I am going to have the vet do an allergy test and see what he can find. Stedman's skin is a tad dry...but nothing like poor Tator's
