There are many reasons why your dog could be suffering from itchy skin.
This is because your dog’s skin is a lot more sensitive than yours or mine. Like humans, your dog’s skin has naturally occurring oils that can be stripped away by harsh shampoo and conditions leaving their skin dry and their coat brittle.
Chemical filled detergent soap can give us dry, itchy skin, eczema or dermatitis; these same chemicals can give your dog, dry, itchy skin or other health problems.
Some other reasons your pet could be suffering with itchy skin:
• Over washing of your dog which can lead to dryness, especially if the products you’re using contain chemicals. Experts recommend bathing only once a month to keep their skin and coat healthy.
• Fleas or parasites can be a common culprit.
• Infections such as hot spots
• Food allergies – check your dog’s diet, he could have an allergy to one or more ingredients in his food, try changing the food that he eats.
• Irritants from detergents used to wash bedding, household cleaners or even sprays used in your yard.
Finding the cause of your dog’s problem can be a step by step process of elimination.
Concerned owners will take their pooch to see a vet, but medicine might not help if the allergic reaction is from the harsh chemicals contained in detergent type dog shampoo.
Many pet owners who use chemical filled dog shampoos find that their dogs tend to scratch a lot. This is because most of these chemical based shampoos contain irritants and ingredients that can irritate your dog’s skin and make it very dry.
Using organic dog shampoo will reduce the likelihood of allergies or rashes associated with the chemicals commonly found in most grooming products and will also help to eliminate potential harm from these chemicals from not only your pet, but for you as well.
