Puppy Dandruff?? My Lucas has seemed to be itchy since he came home. At his first vet check-up, they said as long as nothing looked wrong with his skin, he was probably just scratching like normal. But now he has little flakes in his hair. Since I live in Calgary, AB and it is very dry here in the winter, I thought maybe Lucas just has dry skin like the rest of us, but I don't know if maybe I am bathing him too much or with the wrong shampoo and that it would be making it worse? I bathe him once a week and have been using diluted Mane and Tail that his breeder gave me. Any suggestions for my flakey baby? |
I'm kind of having the same problem. |
Are you sure you are rinsing him thoroughly enough? If any shampoo remains on his skin, it can cause him to be itchy and to have flakes. Perhaps you can find a mild conditioner (like for babies) and use that after the shampoo? |
I actually have been using conditioner as well..very strange |
Me too I use conditioner every time. |
Once a week may be too often, especially in the winter time. Some dogs can handle once a week, once every two weeks, and if your dog is like my dog her skin can only handle once a month. Try spreading it out and hopefully his skin get's better. |
