Things You'll Need
- Natural, allergy free food
- Omega 3 supplement
- Gentle shampoo
Instructions
Feed your dog an all natural dog food, such as Natural Balance. If allergies are responsible for your dog's eczema, giving him an all natural based diet will eliminate any possibility for a reaction.
Give your dog a daily dose of omega 3 supplement. If your pup has trouble swallowing it, cut open the tablet and drizzle on your dog's food once daily. The fatty acids will dramatically improve your pup's flare ups and give him a soft, shiny coat.
Bathe your dog with a gentle shampoo, such as AvoDerm Natural Shampoo. Ingredients like oatmeal and avocado oil help to reduce inflammation. Limit the bathing to once a month, as excessive bathing can exasperate the condition.
See your vet if the condition worsens or does not heal on its own. A cortisone cream or Benadryl prescription may be prescribed to help with the irritation.
