Last year Molly developed really bad pacthes that looked like eczema & she was chewing her coat away. We found a couple of fleas (from the garden?) so we quickly flea bombed the place. It worked a treat. We also got Molly some of the Skin-Eze from USA, and also wash her only every couple of weeks or so (not every week, so we dont dry out the natural oils, unless she gets really smelly from rolling around) uing the Dermacare Oatmeal shampoo & conditioner. As for food, Molly gets good quality doggy bisuits & sausage for breakfast. Then hypnotises us so she can share our toast & marmalade for breakfast #2. Around lunchtime Molly asks for her main meal. Often it's something with rice and vegatables. The something can be raw or cooked steak or can be cooked fish or chook. Then in the evening she hypnotises us again for her traditional left-overs of whatever we're eating. Every now and again a good beef bone to clean her teeth. She's not fat & now definately doesnt have any more skin issues, although we have been in the cooler months over winter. Watch out for summer, the main thing for us is I think she's a little alergic to the fleas which can just pop up out of the garden so I keep a daily vigil of brushing & checking. See you at the next westy walk, LoL Molly.
Skin, more skin
