Hi JC,

A friend of mine recommended me the fish oil, Ark's Natural Royal Coat Express. This oil is good for my westie girl and also use on a friend of mine who owns a westie who have skin problem as well, it do helps alot. Maybe you can look for it.

You can buy it in a vet at Aman Suria, Hands N Paws.. A bottle cost RM83.00 if not mistaken.

Usually westie fur would not drop, they do not have fur changing season.. If the fur drops, i think its your dog food doesn't suit her and causes the fur drop. You might have to consider switching dog food, fish/salmon kibbles are recommended for skin problem, so maybe you could get that.

I do not use the Gold Medal Clean Eyes for my westies. I feed them Blue Bay Eye Vita. It's very good for them, till now their eyes are clear and with less tear stain. Bright eyes they have now. Ard RM43-45.00 per bottle, use 1-2 bottles, then its all clear and no need to use anymore.

Also, I uses Health N Shine for the saliva stain as well, health n shine do help them look clean n white. 1 bottle is around RM100.00, you will see the diff after consuming 1st bottle. No need to use all the time, as you think they are clean and white.

Hmmm.... Most of the skin issues are mostly due to the diet of the dog. What kibbles are you providing Vivi currently? Do you provide her any snacks which are consume by humans?
