We tried oatmeal baths and they didn’t make much difference. We had to use medicated shampoo and change her to a grain free diet. She was much better then. I’d recommend talking with your vet, they know your dog best. Good luck.

Change diet, add oil to their food for starters. Dog food is the first suspect. Frequent bathing can also cause this.

Change its diet I gave mine home made food and itchy flakey skin stopped and it reduces shedding to. Would you eat the dried stuff with Colouring and Es? Dog food is supposed to be fit for Human Consumption!! Dried stuff maybe convenient but I wouldn’t give it to my Dogs. All mine have black noses and wonderful skin even with heating on. Originally Dog’s ate what we ate years ago they are healthier even our Vet said he’d be out of business if everyone changed!! It worked out cheaper to!

Change what you are feeding your dog immediately. This is either a yeast or allergy response. Shampoo will be like a bandaid on a broken leg.
