Thanks so everyone for all the helpfull replys and advice. I am going to look into the dog food and the supplement  suggested on here. I am not sure if  Innova or Derma Caps are in Canada but will certainly look into it.I wanted to wait till after the thanksgiving weekend was over.
 
I use a dog dander shampoo that is supposed to be gentle but maybe need a different one like suggested here.. I have used the dog wipes to just on his coat as I dont want to dry out his skin. 
We have not had him  even a full month yet  and he was eating Beneful and his mother was eating Beneful  long before he was conceived so maybe that is what is wrong.  
Seems he has this white powdery stuff all over him. It is not dust

It comes from him  and he has it all through his coat but the skin does not look flakey at all.Jackson never had this problem but different breeder and different food. 
Thanks so much .

with all this  support I dont feel so alone with this problem so wont give up easily.It just gets me down sometimes.
