Dry Flaking Skin On Your Big Dog

Does your big dog have a problem with dry flaking skin? Try adding fish oil capsules to their dog food. If there is still a problem, try a dog food that has a salmon base. I have had luck with both of these tips, but I have also added oatmeal into their diet. My male Saint Bernard had extremely dry flaking skin. I was advised by a veteran breeder to add the fish oil capsules to his diet, so I did. It helped a little. Then I decided to switch to a salmon base dog food, that seemed to help even more. He still occasionally had flaky skin, so I thought I would add oatmeal to his diet. I am very pleased with his coat now, it is no longer dry and flaky. Plus he loves the salmon dog food and the oatmeal added to it.
