    My 5 month old puppy seems to have dandruff. I noticed it about a month ago... quit bathing him and started brushing him a little more and am giving him fish oil... Coat looks really nice but still seems to have dandruff! Help!!! :confused:

    I'd switch food. I've had quite a few dogs that would be flakey on certain foods but not on others. It can be a bit of trial and error to figure out a diet that suits each individual dog....

    You can also add coconut oil to the food and to the coat as well. I used a Hemp shampoo I got at my local feed store for a couple of dollars and it seems to work well. Only used it 2x so don't know long term results yet.
    Zoe is right about the trial and error thing. And your pup is also going through a lot of hormone changes and growth changes now so that could be a factor and the dry skin could be temporary.
