How to Help Stop the Winter Itch!!

277Winter weather is tough on your skin and hair, so don’t forget its the same for your pup, so he or she needs the same kind of protection.

If your dog is already itching, you need to break him or her from that habit because it can cause open sores and possible infections. A great daily supplement for this, and for all dogs, is Omega 3- it will help revitalize your dog’s skin and coat and keep it healthy. Of course always talk to your vet first.

I get compliments on my dog’s coat a lot, and I always say it’s the Omega 3 supplements and of course healthy dog food too!

Does Your Dog Have Dry Skin?

Spring’s on the way, we hope, but what should you do if your dog’s skin has become dry and flaky because of overheated houses and dry outdoor air?  According to Helen Fazio, travel dog blogger, Canine Omega 3 capsules taken during this time of year can stop dry skin flare-ups and help your dog ease that winter coat into the lighter summer coat without excessive scratching or hair loss. Consult your vet for dosage based upon weight and to make sure there are no dietary restrictions.
