Pam,
Brine is salt water. I don't know for sure, but I'd have thought you'd be OK
with the olive oil, but maybe have a firtle around on the Internet to see if
there's more information. Given that dogs are natural scavengers, I'm sure they
can take an occasional mouthful of something unusual without too much problem.
Vince.

I won’t waste money on my dog, I wasted enough having tests done that showed no
solution for the problem. The sardines really did help.

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.

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.

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.
