Does anyone know what is good for dermatitis on a dog?
Use what your vet prescribed, if you are not seeing improvements request a referral from your vet to a canine dermatologist.
Reply:idk sorry but you should google it
Reply:Aside from seeing a vet and getting medications, I would search for the top 10 dog foods and choose one of those kinds. Chances are, the dog has an allergy to the dog food you are feeding and switching it will be most beneficial.





It could be something simpler, but again, only your vet will know. Assuming this is not a puppy and mange. Assuming the dog does not have fleas and this is not a flea allergy....
Reply:Did the Vet diagnose it as dermatitis and not one of the forms of mange? Don't try treating the dog without a Vet's professional diagnosis of what the problem is and what will work best on that particular problem.
Reply:How do you know its dermatitis? Maybe you should have a vet to look at it to make sure.
Reply:Personally I think the dog shampoos don't work that well. I use Johnson and Johnson baby shampoo on my puppies dermatitis and it works great for her. Her itching has stopped and she even smells great too!
