I know some of you use autarky but i was wondering if any of you have had any skin problems while on it (well not you but your dogs )
we started to change all of ours over to Autarky from Pedigree about 2 months ago and they have been just on autarky for the last 6 weeks
over the last 2 weeks some of the dogs have lost the shine from their coats and have Dandruff and 2 of the dachshunds have just picked at it the last 2 days
Has anyone else come across this
Nope, never had that problem, if anything the opposite - we had to move our dog onto it because regular dog food was giving her skin allergies. Try giving them a capsule of evening primrose oil each once a day (either directly as a treat - if your dogs will take it, or snip it over their food with some scissors) and see if it improves Doesn't have to be the expensive stuff, just the cheap one a day human capsules. Failing that, sardines in oil are another good one for improving coat condition - feed once or twice a week on top of their biscuits. That's also good for fussy eaters.
Thanks
They all get a cod liver oil capsual every day anyway so i could change over to evening primrose.
The strange thing is the 2 that are picking at it are the greediest 2 of all of our dogs
One of the pups will not eat the puppy autarky either but she was weaned onto eukanuba so i think its the size of the biscuit that is putting her off as its a lot bigger and harder
