I am currently feeding my girl Fromm Salmon a la Veg dog food. She has dry skin (small flakes at the lower back/base of tail and she is itchy) and with the colder weather here she is more itchy. I was wondering if giving her Grizzly Salmon Oil would help, but is this too much fish? Do I need the Fish Oil supplement since she is getting the Fromm Salmon food? The Fromm states that is has:
Omega 3 Fatty Acids 0.6% MIN
Omega 6 Fatty Acids 2.7% MIN

When I bathe her I use Oatmeal Shampoo and conditioner from Chris Christensen and she only get bathed every two weeks. I am planning on waiting longer between baths this time so that I don't risk making her skin worse. She also gets brushed at least once daily.

She is now 8 months old.

Thoughts?

Any help is much appreciated.
