Here are my suggestions. When changing food and adding supplements, give ample time before you get frustrated. Chattie's coat got really dry and brittle iIt took almost a WHOLE YEAR for Chatties coat to get healthy again.

First of all Fergie is due for a good thorough checkup with a vet who will LISTEN to you about your concerns. Rule out any medicall problems.

Find a good quality food and stick with it. Canidae All Life Stages worked wonders with my dry coated little Chattie. I also use Missing Link and for a while I was giving cold pressed fish oil.

Use a premium shampooand conditioner and rinse well. I actually set the timer for the final rinse -- 5 minutes under running water. Do not use a blow dryer, but air dry.
