Dry skin Layla got put on some anti-histamines last week for some rash spots on her tummy. The vet said there was no sign of infection, so it must have been an allergic reaction to something she's been touching with her tummy. Now it has turned to darker brown spots and it's very very flakey and dry everywhere. Can I try putting on some lotion? Or should I just take her back to the vet? I have a very gentle non-perfumed and hypoallergenic face cream I use daily on myself... would maybe that little bit of moisture help her out or should I even try? She just got a short cut today (I'll post a thread on that later!) and I noticed the dryness a lot :( |
my Layla has VERY dry skin.. has since the day i got her. It gets so dry sometimes it cracks and bleeds. I use Aveno Baby Fragrance Free Daily lotion. I have also heard that the baby body wash is good for dry skin but i haven't used it yet. I always avoid the vet if i can so i'd try this first. Also you can try adding vitamin E to her diet aswell as Omega 3 and 6's. |
Thanks! I'll try using some mild lotion. She's eating Orijen 6 fish right now which I thought had quite a bit of omega 3 and 6, but I also have some missing link I can use as well. |
