He doesn't appear to have dry skin because i never see any flakes or anything. Does anyone have any other suggestions as to what to do? Is there a vitamin or supplement of some sort that can help this? My vet is convinced it is the little hairs inside his ear that need to be plucked so maybe that could be it?? I hate to see him itch..
yes there are supplements and such but first you need to do a food elimination diet on it's own for 12 weeks first before confusing the situation - baby steps for allergies - one change at a time or you will make yourself crazy trying to figure out what works and what does not
