I have tried different foods but the only one that she eats well and does well on is the Royal Canin for Yorkshire Terriers. I have use mirical coat supplement also. Her skin is no longer dry but I just can't seem to get her coat to grow. Should I clip her so her hair is even? It is real short around her shoulders where she scratched. Her hair was silky before she lost it. Any advise? Thanks!  |
Whelping puppies takes alot out of mothers. My Go-Go whelped at the end of March, her coat is just getting back to normal and starting to grow. She did the itching thing. Of course I cut her down before whelping. I did add Solid Gold Kelp and Flax Seed Oil to her meals YT 28, but she was on the YT puppy weaning 3 weeks prior to whelping and for a couple of weeks after. Just have patience
