Dry Skin/Scratching Solution! I hope!! Okay so Mya had really itchy skin with no rashes or redness or hairloss or anything abnormal except some dandruff in the shoulder blade/back area. The vet gave me some prescription stuff that was to no avail. I got sick of all the doggie shampoos/conditions/supplements/foods not working so last night when she woke me up to potty, and she was nonstop scratching again I said that's it! I tried my own solution, and it has seemed to be working thus far! I put Gold Bond Ultimate Healing Skin Therapy Lotion on her. Its not the Gold Bond Powder, but it is a thick soothing lotion that I once used for myself on my dry skin/itchy condition on my legs. It has 7 intensive moisturizers and is non-greasy formula. I just spread her fur and rubbed it on liberally, trying to only get it on the skin and not massive amounts of fur she as! Then brushed it through. I will keep you posted if this therapy keeps working! Lauren and Mya |
Hope that works..Gold Bond is good. Please keep us posted. |
I got "Perfect Coat" Natural Oatmeal Shampoo from Petco. It says on the label - 'NATURALLY MOISTURIZES AND REPLENISHES WITH PANTHENOL TO SOOTH IRRITATED SKIN". I give Bailey a bath every 3 weeks and brush her daily. We had a problem last year with itchy skin and the vet gave me "Malaseb" Medicated Shampoo. The problem with that is you have to keep it on the dog for 10 minutes before rinsing. I wrapped her in a towel for 10 minutes with the shampoo on. It worked well. But now I use the "Perfect Coat" and there is no problem. |
