Julia,

 

Central heating does not do any favours as it can cause too dry an
atmosphere.

Yes, I understand that, some humans have dry skin for no apparent reason,
its the way they are. Yes, tests are expensive, but just bunging these Omega
pills down the dog isnt the answer either. Soometimes these things are
seasonal too, as I had a dog with seasonal skin problems. For m e it would
be a case of discussing with the vet, asking what the options are, and
discussing each one in depth, which is what I do with all my animals. and
then drawing my own conclusions, but some arent that way inclined. Most of
these so-called remedies are harmless I would think, but one does still need
to be careful. A friend of mine once had a cat with worms, she went to the
pet shop and bought wormers, which made the cat ill, as they were the wrong
sort, so instead of saving money which is what she was trying to do, she
ended up spending  more as she had to take the cat to the Vet any7way to be
put right. We are talking about dogs but the its the same principle.

Hello Julia,

 

I wish to make a few other comments here, that I stupidly didn’t in my last
post on this subject.

 

It isn’t as straight forward as finding out what is causing the dry skin.
While I agree it a good idea if one can, it isn’t always the case where a
vet can work this out. With some dogs it is just far to tricky, no matter
what tests are done.

 

Then there is the cost of these tests, and I had them done with my second
dog for no results, two vets couldn’t pin down the issue. Part of it could
be breeding, at the end of the day I was prepared to pay far more for some
results, but was told there would most likely be none. Some dogs not all,
but some can just be to complex. Although a person might not know the issue,
sardines do help.

 

Brent.

Would depend what is causing the dry skin, though, wouldnt it?

Certainly the dry skin, but I doubt the shedding. In conjunction you might
consider one can of sardines in spring water per week, just put in with the
food. They also help with dry skin and other issues. I doubt they would do
anything for the shedding though.

a friend of mine told me that giving the dogs an omaega 3 capsule in their
food can cut down on shedding and help with dry skin which callie suffers
with a bit. have anyone else ever tried this?

Pam,

The soft Slicker brush I've got is £4.00 at Pets@Home, though there are
other models from £3 to £10. Some are dual Slicker and bristle brushes.
