Hello. It is very possible that Fifi may be developing some allergies or sensitivities to things in her environment. It could be inhaled like pollens & dust, or contact to grass, cleaners in the house or products used outdoors on the lawn. Since her skin looks dry & scaly, then you want to use a moisturizing, oatmeal based shampoo, something like Dermal Soothe shampoo that is available on Amazon. I also recommend starting Fifi on a good omega 3 fatty acid. Nordic Naturals fish oil for dogs, also available on Amazon is an excellent choice. If any redness or irritation should occur, stop the shampoo & please see your veterinarian for further diagnostics. Thanks for contacting PetCoach.
