1645208 tn?1301072177 Fish oils and all oily fish are extremely good for dogs. Omega 3 oils, all-round healthy for dogs and people. Tuna, sardines, salmon, mackerel.....(mind the bones. They can be dangerous of course) The bones in canned fish are ok, they are softer and not only edible but an excellent source of calcium too.
Avatar n tn Malassezia, a skin yeast can also turn the skin black but this hyperpigmentation is usually secondary to skin allergies and inflammation. You may have to have this biopsied or have a skin scraping performed at your vet's for a definitive diagnosis.

Avatar f tn Second baby was a boy. Had no greasy hair nor oily skin. My third was a boy and had no greasy hair nor oily skin. Im thinking im having a girl because her hormones and mine are raging. I feel so ugly. Ive never had greasy hair nor oily skin or acne when I was a teenager or pregnant except with my first girl. I dont know what to use. My face is sensitive already so I use minimal product. I also usually have beautiful natural skin so I dont use makeup except a little bronze.

Avatar f tn We have ours on a Nutro skin sensitivity, somthing its in a light green bag. It helps with shedding and its got good vitamins in it. That is worth a try. I know some people give there dogs canned pumpkin to and its supposed to be good for them. I hope this helps.
Avatar n tn (Show dogs get bathed more often, but the shampoos are different) Bathing with the wrong ingrediants like dish liquids ect cause the wrong PH balance in the skin and can cause problems. If you are giving olive oil, you could be giving too much or too often and that could cause problems with the coat. You could have a dog who already has oily skin and coat making it appear to be wet. Talk to a good breeder and get advice from them. If you need help with this PM me and I'll try and help.

Avatar f tn My 9 yr old Shih Tzu has very oily skin and scratches several times a day. She was a puppy mill mama that I rescued 1.5 yrs ago. She is on a raw diet and is at a healthy weight. I have ruled out Seborrhea as she does not stink at all. It seems to be worse when she's been outside. I heard about airborne allergies from grass, weeds, etc., and suspect that might be her issue. Thoughts or advice anyone?
Avatar m tn Washing does little to seem to stop the oil production and in many cases makes things seem to get even more oily with irritation. Are there medications that can help reduce oily skin?
Avatar f tn In an older dog, the first step is to perform full labwork and thyroid panel to identify any internal diseases, and to perform skin scrapings and skin cytology to look for skin parasites and infection. If bloodwork abnormalties are found, then further diagnostics/treatment are prescribed based on the lab results. If skin infection is found, then antibiotics for 3-4 weeks would be needed.

Avatar f tn I have used "Brewer's Yeast" mixed in with the dogs' food. For some reason, fleas can't tolerate it. Don't know if it effects ticks though. Interesting topic. I hope you get some good suggestions - I might just "borrow" them for my own dogs who take Sentinel for fleas, etc. Natural is better, I agree.

5913031 tn?1382391190 My skin isnt oily and i have the glow i thnk it bcuz of all the extra hormones that u have when ur preggers like longer hair n nails my skin just looks healthy and vibrant
Avatar n tn hi i would say the same as the others probally due to oily skin try using a face scrub for oily skin dont use to much moisturiser try and find one that is suited to ur skin type. i find the clean and clear for oily skin range is great but everyone is different.try keeping ur hair out of your face as this can cause oily skin and drink plenty of water and get plenty of fresh air.oily skin is nothing to worry about as it is just your skin type that can be managed.hope this helps.
1319167 tn?1278213669 This may seem gross but I am wondering if anybody has experienced something similiar. I am on day 15 and still taking the vitamins in the Thomas Rec. My face seems especially oily and this is not very common for me. Is this the vitamins or part of the "detox"? Another question...how do you find a support group?
Avatar n tn Unlike people with dry skin, the skin in people with seborrhoeic dermatitis is usually oily. In adults seborrhoeic dermatitis usually affects the scalp, eyebrows, ear canals, sides of the nose, and behind the ears. It sometimes affects the armpits, chest and in the groin area. Stress, fatigue (pregnancy / lactation in your case), weather extremes, oily skin and infrequent shampooing or skin cleaning & severe medical illnesses make it worse.
Avatar f tn My face and hair have become so oily. I can't stand it. It make me feel dirty. Does anyone else have this problem? What did you use to make it stop?

746058 tn?1248344665 Both food allergy and pollen/dust allergies can cause recurrent skin infections in dogs, as can hormonal conditions such as hypothyroidism. Please take him to your veterinarian this week to be assessed, and if infection is confirmed, then a 3-4 week course of antibiotics and anitbacterial shampoos will be needed. But keep in mind that until the underlying cause of the skin infection is appropriately diagnosed and treated, it will likely recur when antibiotics are finished.
