| Food for dry skin? I have to go buy more dog food today, and I'm thinking of switching them off of Royal Canin because Bella has very dry skin, and I've read before how sometimes the Royal Canin can be associated with it. Does anyone know a good food that helps with their skin condition too?

| I use the adult EaglePak holistic food that contains, anchovy, salamon and other good things. I believe it keeps Remi's coat in good condition. He has been fed EaglePak since he was a pup at the breeders. There are various flavors to try. |

| It's a small locally owned store/boutique. We live in a small town. No Petco/Petsmart. Only thing chain is WalMart. LOL It took about 6 wks before I really could see a difference on Moose's tummy. (not dry any longer) My vet told me it could about 3 months. But it was about 5-6 wks. His coat is shinier too.

| This is what I do... Not that you have to... lol... I feed Roxy dry food, and I feed her Cesar... But I always put a little bit of Olive Oil (low taste) on it... it has really made her hair silky, and her skin a lot more moisturized!!!! I also bathe her in Oatmeal shampoo!!! She was getting dryness behind her ears, but now she is back to her beautiful self non-itchy self thanks to Olive Oil and Oatmeal...

I hope it does work for your cutie pies! I am totally impressed with it for Moose! Let me know how it works for you. Remember, my vet say it could take up to 3 months. (but didn't take that long for us.)

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | Ok, I will make sure to ask (and it will probably be on YT when I do LOL) before I buy any. I was actually going to go ahead and order it, but it is backordered on the site you posted (and it seems to be the cheapest there) - so I will wait before I order some anyway Quote:
And by the way, thank you so much for all your help!

| mine are on NV raw and sometimes they do get Orijen six fish kibbles. I put Grizzly Bear Salmon oil in their food and they don't have any dry skin problem. their coat is amazing.
