can you use SeaBreeze astringent on dogs with skin problems?
My golden retriever has skin problems. She always is itching and nothing really works. The vet has given us medicine and allergy shots we also give her benadryl. Seabreeze helps my head when its dry and itchy so i was hoping it’ll help poor Daisy. I just want to make sure its safe for her.
No! You’re only going to make her problems a lot worse than they already are. If the treatments aren’t working, tell the vet to try something else!
No, I don’t think that will to a bit of good on your dog. Probably just dry her skin out more.
What kind of allergy shots has your vet given? What kind of food are you feeding?
I’d suggest switching her food to something with minimal ingredients, and supplementing with fish oil and vitamin E to help condition her skin and coat. That will be much better than astringent.

I wouldn’t use it and I might try Eukanuba sensitive skin dog food. Alotta times it’s a change of diet that helps.Good luck"]

Maybe she needs a medicated shampoo?
My dog is a rescue, and when I first adopted him, his skin was in terrible shape. The vet gave me this stuff called Malaseb, and it seemed to help a lot:
