GHT 6 Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 put some oils/fats in her feed if you are feeding dry kibble, if she is not getting lots of work/exercise and protein content of food is high this may not be helping condition. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bootsha 1,306 Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I have found Sudocrem ( babys arse rash cream) is good to initially stop the irritation, and helps to keep area clean for re-growth. Not a scientific approach I know, but it does work. Hope this helps mate. B Quote Link to post Share on other sites

littlefish 585 Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Try washing it in Head&Shoulders shampoo. Seriously, my dogs would get itchy skin and sores occasionally, this cools the skin right down and it is fairly harmless stuff. Worth a try. Tried the Camrosa stuff before but didn't think much of it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
