My 4 month old GSD has dry flaky skin. My vet recommended a special shampoo. What do you think?

Full Question:
Mr. Frawley,

I have a question that I've been confused about. I have a 3 month old GSD, I took him to the Vet, and while we were there I asked her about these white flakes on his coat. She said it was dry skin and gave me a prescription shampoo for him. Should I use it? All I've heard from most people is NOT to bathe GSD and I want to believe them because they are people who have had GSD. Who is right?

Thanks,
Connie

Well it is dry skin, but my guess it is that is caused by diet. I only feed my dogs an all-natural diet. You can read about this on my web site. This should fix the problem. The shampoo only fixes the symptoms. I have that labeled as bad medicine from the vet (feel free to tell your vet I published this question on my web site).

If you want to learn how to feed a dog, get the little $9.00 book that we sell titled Natural Nutrition for Dogs and Cats.

I also strongly recommend not vaccinating your dog on a yearly basis the way that local vets recommend. Pups need an initial vaccination and then a rabies vaccination but no more after that. I have a book titled Shock to the System. It is a must read for anyone who loves their pets. The vet industry is playing a hoax on pet owners in this country with these yearly vaccinations.
