Skin Maintenance

The skin is the largest organ in the body and keeping it in good health will reflect in the coat and the overall condition of the animal. 
Wheatgerm Oil capsules are a Vitamin E supplement which help to maintain the skin in good health and should be added to the diet on a regular basis. In recent years Evening Primrose Oil capsules has been found to contain high levels of GLA (Gamma linolenic acid) which is necessary to keep the skin and coat in a healthy condition and may also help to maintain a healthy hormonal balance. Purifying Garlic Juice can be used to clean and protect the pads and paws and is safe to use even on dry, scaly or damaged skin. Easy Green powder ® is a dried herb supplement that is beneficial for the skin when added to the diet, especially during the Summer months. How often you need to wash the coat will depend on the breed; long coats tend to attract more dust and dirt so will need more frequent attention but there are times when all animals benefit from a bath. Use our Pennyroyal Dog & Cat Shampoo which is a very high quality product especially formulated for your pet that leaves a lovely minty aroma on the coat and helps to repel external parasites too.
