Dry skinQ: My little dog has very dry skin and scratches all of the time, i've tryed different shampoo's and moisturizing shampoo's and nothing seems to help him, what can i do ? A: For many years, pet owners have given fatty acids to their dogs and cats to change a dull, dry coat into a more glossy one. more recently veterinarians have found that fatty acids play important roles in other areas of skin and coat health such as allergies, the control of inflammation, and the function of other body organs in dogs and cats. |we have either 3v caps or dermcaps that supply these fatty acids. information can be found on our website.
