Dandruff

Post by Cass »

Hey guys, my pup has a serious dandruff issue. I'm sure it's partly due to the changing seasons right now but how do you guys deal with it? He's black so it's very noticeable. Our dachshund used to have bad dandruff as well but it went away when we changed to a higher quality food. Jake is on the same food but he still has lots of dandruff. Is there any way to cope with it? It doesn't seem to bother him and he doesn't scratch much but he's always covered in it.

Try a teaspoon of olive oil in his food, once a day for a week or so.

Any fish Oil, Salmon or Cod Liver will do the trick once a day with food, or as mine like it off the spoon.
