Thanks for the tip! I switched her food from puppy to adult and I think her coat is looking better. If I see dandruff again I’ll try the omega 3.

@mizzletits Hey …
@mizzletits Hey Mizz, I just recently figured out my dobermans dandruff problem.
He has almost no dandruff anymore where as before it was terrible.
What worked for my boy was to give him 1200 (can’t remember if its IU’s or mg’s or something else) of omega 3 supplement daily. That helped quite a bit but the kicker was to wash him once a week with no soap……just get him in the shower and rub him down good like you would with soap. Cutting out the soap was key for Logan.

Check with your vet – you can buy vitamins or special oils to prevent dry skin/dandruff. An old home remedy was to mix a Soft Cooked Egg into their food once a week. Our Great Danes used to get two teaspoons of bacon fat mixed with their food 1x per week to keep their coats gleaming.

2 walks a day at 45 minutes each. It isn’t just about exercise, it is also an opportunity to stimulate them mentally. They need walks for the exercise and to explore with their senses.
