greyhound itches

Question
hi. my greyhounds skin is flaking bad and she rubs across the grass everytime i get her out of the run or when i take her for a walk. what could it be and how can i treat it.

Answer
How often do you bathe your Greyhound? Sounds like she has dry skin and some flaking issues, which are not hard to treat. I recommend Nova Pearls moisurising shampoo which you can get at your local feedstore. It should clear it up, use it once a week until the flaking is gone. IF she persists in her rubbing habit, it may be a good idea to switch to a 'hot spot kit' from www.ravenpetproducts.com That will cure just about anything!
