My little girl had dry skin & dull coat when I got her. I've been using Topiclean Oxy Med which contains alpha hydroxy, vitamins & omega 3 fatty acids. Groomer recommeded it. Think I can change now that she's stopped itching & coat looks & feels good. Think I"ll try what Vivian suggested. Sounds wonderful.
I only bath my yorkie once a month, also. Sometimes every 3 weeks. It's winter (cold & dry) here & I'm thinking the same as Spiritwings. It's bad enough having her go outside to relieve herself. Think she caught a cold. She was sneezing alot & coughing/hacking. Took her to vet & he put her on amoxicillin for ten days. But didn't clear it completely up. So I just babied her & now she's well. No coughing etc. So.....that's why I'm leary about bathing to often in winter.
