I have had a couple dogs that had skin problems (dry and itchy) and "Canidae dog food" really helped. Also my vet said I could put a couple table spoons of Olive oil mixed in with it. I think greese will not be too good for your dogs,? Hope this helps, Good luck Beth --- On Tue, 8/17/10, Michele Sinnett <[email protected]> wrote: From: Michele Sinnett <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Need some ideas To: [email protected] Date: Tuesday, August 17, 2010, 9:42 AM I know I'm new and not much will be thought of about my suggestion, but Fish oil or fish oil or fish oil pills I have been told helps tremedously.

What are you doing for flea prevention? Hamburger grease is not good for the dogs. It won't do a thing for the dry skin. You need to get rid of the fleas first then see how they do and work on the rest. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Lavanda Evans Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2010 10:16 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Chihuahuas] Need some ideas Hi new friends, I have 3 babys that are half chihuahas.
