Dechra DermAllay Oatmeal Shampoo for Dogs & Cats - 12 oz | Soothing & Hypoallergenic Pet Shampoo for Dry, Itchy Skin | Gentle Cleansing for Sensitive Skin & Allergy Relief - Perfect for Bath Time & Grooming Routine

My GSD started itching and scratching persistently over a year ago. Her vet started her on Apoquil and I started the process of trying to determined if a food allergy was to blame. I was careful about transitioning foods and even tried a prescription dog food ($178 a bag). While the Apoquil helped to keep her from scratching to the point of bleeding and infection, she was still itchy all day, everyday. A couple months ago she had a vet appointment for a check up and to refill her Apoquil prescription. During the visit, our vet recommended trying this shampoo. I am not kidding you, after I gave her a bath with this shampoo she COMPLETELY stopped scratching. I was amazed. I called the vet the next day and razed about how amazing it was. I see a lot of people on social media/GSD pages asking for advice for itchy dogs. I highly recommend this product. It works by improving the skin's ability to block allergens and irritants. I bathed her 3 times the first week, and then once a week to keep her skin healthy. I do believe she has environmental allergies and she still takes Apoquil. If she gets extra itchy. I will give her an extra bath.I dilute 2 oz. of the shampoo with 2 - 4 oz. of water in a squeeze bottle to make it easier to distribute through her coat and then leave it on for 10 minutes before rinsing.Another benefit is that her shedding has reduced DRAMATICALLY. She is my beautiful baby girl and I'm so happy she is no longer suffering from persistent itching.
