They don't prescribe anything for it - just suggested some things to help his dry skin. He still gets little scabs from time to time from scratching, but it's nothing serious. I use a good conditioner when I bathe him and he's on the missing link supplement which seems to have helped quite a bit. One thing that the vet did suggest was putting Olive Oil in his food. |
How long do the scabs usually last? What kind of conditioner do you use for Oscar? I use Plush Puppy Natural Silk Protein Conditioner. Where do you buy Missing Link? I live in Toronto. Thanks!
