Skin complaints present a variety of symptoms, but the most common are itching, inflammation, flaky skin or excessive hair loss. If you want to help to alleviate your dog’s symptoms long-term, it is advisable to change your dog’s nutrition to a dietetic food such as Royal Canin Veterinary Diet – Skin Care. This dry kibble is a veterinary diet that can be used to help in the treatment of dermatitis or dermatosis and to help to maintain the skin’s barrier function. The food contains a combination of high-quality fatty acids from linseeds, borage oil, soya oil and fish oils, which all help to heal sensitive skin, whilst a special complex of B-vitamins and amino acids helps to boost the skin’s barrier function. Selected nutrients also help to create a balanced gut flora and regulate bowel function.
