Answer

Hi Alex,

You should have your dog examined by a veterinarian. Weight loss and coat or skin problems can mean many things, ranging from internal parasites to a hormonal disorder, with plenty of possibilities in between.

Until you know what exactly is your dog's problem, trying to fix it with a diet supplement is much to random a route to take.

Best of luck,
