(He's just recently switched to a home-cooked diet). I will try adding olive oil to his meals. That should help.

I'm not big on using expensive shampoo. BUT I've never tried expensive shampoo on him. Who knows, maybe it'll make a huge difference.
The baby shampoo most likely dried out his skin because it is not formulated for dogs. Also you may not have rinsed it all out completely. You can get Espree or Biogroom from Petco. I like espree and have a bunch of different kinds so I can switch up the scents when i want.
