  • 1.  Dandruff everywhere

    My Prince has a ton of Dandruff, having been bathing him with an oatmeal anti-dandruff doggie shampoo and conditioner, and although it works he still has quite a bit. Any home remedies out there I can try? Any other suggestions?

    Some dandruff is considered normal and is usually from dry skin, but there can be other reasons for the flakes, especially if it seems excessive.  If Prince is an older dog he may be developing a metabolic condition that needs treatment (thyroid disease for example).  Or, he may have a parasitic skin condition (walking dandruff).  I always think it is a good idea for pets to see a vet when things go outside the norm for them :).
