I am using soothing conditioning spray on the hot spots, but wanted to give her something from the "inside".
Any other suggestions? I don't give her dog treats. Just cow tails (texas toothpicks), she is on a 7percent low fat diet (honest kitchen) I give no skin or fat bits of chicken breast, sometimes fish (basa, salmon, talapia), middle eastern yogurt with probiotics. I was hoping the yogurt would help the skin too. |
You can use coconut oil topically as well. I would try melting it (about 1/8 tsp)and mixing in with the shampoo/conditioner you use on Uni. It is also a wonderful antibacterial and can help the hot spots as well as itchy/dry skin.
