Ideas for a black lab with a ';dandruffy'; coat? Have been using a medicated shampoo recommended by vet.

I am really not sure how often to bathe her. The vet reccommened twice a week. That seems like a lot?? We have used the shampoo for about two weeks. Seems to help for a short time.Ideas for a black lab with a ';dandruffy'; coat? Have been using a medicated shampoo recommended by vet.
Poor skin condition is usually diet related , try changing dog food to a good quality dog food or their could be something not agreeing with your dog in his present food . Zinc deficiency can cause skin and coat problems , I would give your dog a good mineral supplement ';twice a week


';{they do not need it daily because the body has the ability to store most minerals}


also add fish oil to his diet daily . Hope this helps .
