I stopped with the fish oil because i thought it might be upsetting her tummy. Any way i am about to try Florazyme EFA and see if that helps. What also bothers me is that where her dry skin is her hair is considerably thinner. The groomer was surprised by how thin it was and ho:confused her hair length wasn't very long at a year old. Anyway, does anyone else have this problem? What can help it to get better and to thicken up her hair? I think i caused her problem by over bathing her when she was younger. I did it because she would get stinky all the time from getting pee on her and things like that. I really don't think it is food allergies because i switched her food and have seen no super obvious improvement. Thanks so much for any help!  |
What food did you switch to?
Riley had dry skin while on Acana... the vet suggested giving him fish oils. I was giving him Nordic Naturals Omega-3 Pet. I still wasn't helping all that much. Then Acana changed their formula and he really started having issues. He would get little dark round dry spots and some red on my tummy area.
I switched him to Canine Caviar and haven't had Any Issues whatsoever since. Here is a before and after.. The After is only 7-days After switching to Canine Caviar. He is now completely 100% Clear and has been eating it for almost 6-months, now.
