Bad dandruff still!!

Lucky Duck · 04-19-2005, 03:57 AM

I posted before about this and got some great suggestions... Comet, my ArabX has dandruff, mostly on his neck. I started him on oil and a hoof and coat supplement as suggested over 2 months ago, but he still has bad dandruff!! Is it not working or does it just take a while?? Is there anything else I can do? It is warmer now so is there something I can bathe him with that would help?

I use either Head and Shoulders or Selsun Blue for any scruff coming off my boy's neck.
Works quite well usually.

I had great success with nutregena T-Gel twice a week on Moose. When I bought him right before Christmas, man, he was a mess!! He had dandruff all over his body, and some kind of bug allergy (so i was told anyway) on his mane and tail. I also use a product called, yup, you guessed it, http://www.calmcoat.com on his really bad areas. I have him all cleared up now. I also put him on corn oil which did help. Although now I have switched over to ground flax seed, it is easier to feed and not as messy

There is also a horse product called M-T-G and I've heard that it works well on dandruff too.
