Most commercial brands of shampoo and conditioner have chemical in them that can irritate sensitive skin. Sulfates in the shampoo are very drying to the skin and coat.
A good Omega 3 supplement may help the skin quite a bit.
There are some good all natural brands of shampoo and conditioner for dogs out there. They don't strip the skin of all the natural oils that are needed and actually help to condition the skin and coat.
I use the Yorkie Splash and Shine products available on Yorkie Splash and Yorkie Shine | Yorkie Shampoo and Yorkie Conditioner I also use WEN. Both have produced wonderful results.
There are also other all natural brands out there that others recommend. Just read the label carefully. Some products advertize one of two natural ingredients but still contain chemicals that can harm the skin and coat.
Medicated shampoos are often harsh and actually make matters worse. Unless you have a specific diagnosis that requires a particular medication I would stay away from the so call "medicated" stuff. |
