Dry skin question.

My German Shepherd rescue girl is getting very dry and flaky skin now. I know this happens, but what can I do to help her recover soft and good skin and hair? I am currently giving her 2 Salmon Oil gel caps a day and am feeding a good food...what else...any suggestions?

Does she get a bath? I found

Does she get a bath? I found that Matilda was flaky until I started using Nizoral shampoo on her. We use fish oil too, but there were a couple of times that it had to be the shampoo I was using, the laundry detergent, or some sort of other product that was just too drying. I'd bought a laundry detergent called BioKleen at WholeFoods (all natural? no chemicals? hmm.) that literally broke her out in a rash in two days.

From here on out all her laundry is washed in baking soda and white vinegar on hot. Works like a charm.

I didn't say thank you for the information....

I'm sorry, I must have been in a hurry that day. Anyway, thank for the help! I don't know what it is with Millie, but I aim to find out!
