Skin problems in dogs can occur for many reasons. In this series we will highlight known causes, common problems, and explore both conventional and holistic treatments for skin problems in dogs.

Fleas, Demodicosis (red mange), dermatitis, sarcoptic mange, itchy, dry skin, hot spots as well as other skin problems can make life miserable for your family and your pet. The subsequent scratching, itching, chewing and licking contributes to the never-ending cycle that a dog with skin problems endures.

Fortunately, there are natural pet supplies available to combat fleas, reduce hot spots and skin irritations and help treat the actual problems, often times immune-related, that may be causing skin problems in dogs and disease.
