what are you feeding him? Diet can be a HUGE cause of skin/fir problems... Dogs need QUALITY dog food to stay healthy... but I still advise you to take him to a vet, because its better to be safe than sorry, and a vet can proscribe supplements that your dog will need to speed the healing.

Take him to a veterinarian for a complete exam. They will find out the real problem so he can be treated for what's wrong. Hope he gets better soon!

Its not just dry skin, the dog has a skin condition that needs a vet to look at.....please take to the vet, normal dry skin, is not gonna look like fish scales....,.

well you know how our skin gets dry well maybe you should bring him to a vet and ask for an ointment for his skin...I hope it clears up!

This is mostly caused by flee silyva and is not easy to treat.

you should take him to a vet. it might be malnutrition, an allergic reaction to something or something more serious. good luck!

My dog lost a big hair patch but now we give her Vitamin E and fish oil. She loves them and her skin and fur is great. I suggest taking him to a Dog dermatologist.

Please take it to the vet. It must have been suffering for the whole time you are thinking what it is. Your dog has a skin condition cause by fleas or ticks or it has skin fungus. Please take your poor dog to the vet asap.

Hi,



this started occuring more and more frequently in my dog, starting at about age 5. Don't worry about it - it's totally natural for a dog! The skin just shows he's getting older....When it happened to my dog, I was so grossed out and worried I practically ran to the vet, who reassured me that noting was wrong.



However, since I don't know for sure what your dog's problem is, take him to the vet for a complete check up.



The probability of it being serious is below 1%, but better safe than sorry.
