| Yorkie Coat I am just wondering if there is something that I can give my puppies (one is 3 months and the other is 5 months) for having a healthier, shinier and longer coat!! Pills? Food? Treats? Shampoo? Cream? There coats are coming in ultra slowly and they are barely growing... so I am thinking maybe something can boost the growth. Thanks in Advance!! Kristina Jake's and Daisy's Mommy

| I suggest getting Eicosaderm - it is a vitamin E/Fish oil supplement. Lacy's hair has been growing better since I started using it last October. You can ask your vet about it..it comes from Dermapet

| you can get it online. google it. i use this on yogi just as a booster because he already has everything in his food. Ever since i switched from euk to a mix of euk, orijen and some iams in every meal his coat has looked much better. just dont use too much oil, like half a pump a day or else 1. its a waste and 2. his kisses arent so pleasent hehe. great product and it lasts for a really long time. |

| I have a gal and a boy that I'm currently trying to grow out their coats. It was suggested to me a while back to give glucosamine to aid in coat growth and boy has it made a huge difference! (Plus, it's good for joints too.) Plus, make sure you are using a good shampoo & conditioner. If you are blow drying them, make sure you have the dryer on a low setting. |
