I have a question about…
Enter your question here Hi my name is Kathy and have 3 house dogs. and they all seem to blessed with dry skin just above their tails and have way up the back. my older dog (13years)has red spots behinds bothe the joints are her front legs and down the lower paws. I have put hydrocortisone cream on her to try to help. Is that wrong do you have any suggestions. I have taken them to vet and were given a shot of course and took benedry but that doesn’t seem to help right now. I give them a bath to try to helpthem feel better.
also would it hurt to give them yeast tablets or should I be giving them something different.

Do your dogs have fleas? This hair loss and dry skin pattern is often associated with fleas. Brewer’s yeast has been suggested for help in controlling fleas but I have no personal experience with its use. Good flea control, the use of hemp oil in the diet, and regular bathing in a sulfur based shampoo should help your dogs. We use revolution at the sanctuary with good success for flea control.
our dogs don’t have fleas is probably allergies but it’s very expensive. it could also be yeast infection which the male dog is blessed with under his head.
