| This also looks like the spots that Riley has had before... Riley has only had a couple of spots at a time and they got to about a medium grey. I take Riley to the same Vet as Kristin = "Maximo". He confirmed that Riley definitely had dry skin.... [I was feeding Acana/Pacifica, at the time and I don't know why but I did notice when feeding Acana his skin was very dry....] and he seemed to think they were environmental… possibly some sort of grass allergy... he recommended I give Riley some sort of Omega/fish oil... I started giving Riley Nordic Naturals Omega-3 Pet [you can get it in liquid form or pill form] as well as occasionally rubbing his belly with the Nordic Naturals Organic Coconut Oil. People on here know how Thrilled I am with Canine Caviar...and let me just say that since I switched Riley to it, on August 2nd, he is Completely 100% Cleared Up... I flipped him over this morning to check him out and there are absolutely NO Spots... and we have been walking through not only the same Grass, etc. in DC, but tons of new grass in Florida the past week and a half. You will see where I posted photos on this thread: Page 3, #36, you will see 2-before and 2-after photos of Riley after I switched him from the Acana/Pacifica to the Canine Caviar Grain Free Wild Ocean. This was day 7, after the switch. His tummy is even "More Clear" this morning than he was in those 2-after photos. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yorkie-health-diet/250735-acana-dog-food-changing-3.html Here is another thread where Luma has those same spots: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yorkie-health-diet/251411-scary-black-splotches-luma.html |
