Hi Guys, We have started to notice when we walk Roxy she seems to be getting alot and I mean alot of dandruff around the collar area and only in this area, we use an ezydog collar on her.

Any ideas what could be causing this?

Have you given her a brush to see if it's anywhere else?

Pixee use to suffer with this when we first had her, what I have noticed, around this time of the year, she tends to get it abit, dont know if its the weather? I am using coconut oil in her food, and she gets more fish too, that generally does the job. And of course I brush her twice a week instead of once, this seems to help get rid of it.

Is it definitely flaky skin, could it be oils rubbed into little bits by the collar? Might look similar and explain why its only around the collar.
