3 year old yorkie food? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Hello!

I am back and my dog Toby is now 3 turning 4. My question though is should I keep him on earthborn? or should I start looking for new food for him? He eats the food but I noticed that he has really dry skin. He's had itching since he was little though. But I was wondering if he would be better if I changed his diet?

Thank you for your help!

You could try another kibble sure. And/or you could add coconut oil to his diet too.

I feed raw by Primal or Natures Variety. But if you're looking for kibbles: Natures Logic, Natures Variety, Solid Gold, Wellness Core, Acana...

We use Earthborn coastal catch, I noticed a little dryness on two of my dogs when we switched to the meadow feast (lamb). Ziva also gets dry skin when treated with Activyl (topical flea treatment) We stick to the no grain fish variety for the best shine and health.

Try adding a tablespoon of olive oil on his food for 2 to 3 weeks.
