| I was thinking of trying Natural Balance as well. Every three-six months I like to rotate their food but have been so happy with Canidae I haven't changed yet. I have heard good things about Natural Balance though and the lower protien content in it is a nice thing for all of us with these small guys, they don't need as much protien as many of the larger dogs do. |

| This thread was so interesting to read! Thanks everyone for all of their hints. Have one pet out of four that has a skin problem so trying any or all of these suggestions just might do the job!! Thanks again!!! |

| Nutra T Gel is wonderful, as a final rinse 10 parts water to 1 part vinegar. Also, try adding Flax Seed Oil to your pups meals.

I do know a few who choose this formula and then add a bit of chicken or other meat INTO the kibble as they choose. I guess the quality factor is a matter of opinion and how your dog handles certain ingredients

| Have you tried testing for scabies? Summerlin kept itching and I thought she had dry skin, but I kept changing her food, started on missing link, changed shampoos, oatmeal baths, everything I could think of and that was suggested. Finally took her to the vet and they said she had scabies, that she had probably had them when I got her a month ago. Now she has to be dipped in some foul smelling medication once a week for four weeks, but she has had one treatment and already looks a hundred times better. Her skin is looking great. She smelled horrible for the first day and a half, but after that the smell kind of wore off. The only really bad thing is that I can't bath her after she is dipped.... |
