Seborrhea in Dogs
What is Seborrhea in Dogs?
Seborrhea is a skin condition characterized by excess sebum production and defective keratinization (the process by which the skin and nails regenerate). It causes the skin to become scaly or flaky, producing dandruff.

It may cause the coat to have a greasy or waxy appearance, and skin odor is also possible.
Skin folds are typically more affected by seborrhea and may have an especially foul odor.
Signs of Seborrhea in Dogs:
* Scaling and flaking of skin
* Greasy appearance of coat
* Odor coming from coat
* Redness and/or pigmentation of skin
* Hair loss
* Concurrent skin and/or ear infections
Itching is not common unless it is due to another skin problem
Causes of Seborrhea in Dogs
Seborrhea is categorized as either primary or secondary. Primary seborrhea is rare; most seborrhea cases in dogs are secondary.
Treatment for Seborrhea in Dogs
There is no cure for primary seborrhea, but the condition can be managed with medicated baths using an anti-seborrheic shampoo. Vitamin A or retinoids may be used to support skin health and regeneration. Dogs with primary seborrhea will typically need treatment for life.

Treatment for secondary seborrhea is based on the underlying cause. In order to determine the appropriate treatments, your vet will need to first identify the underlying condition(s) that caused seborrhea.

Your veterinarian will perform skin tests like skin scrapes, cytology, biopsy, and/or culture to determine if an infection is present (bacterial, fungal/yeast, or parasitic). Blood tests may be necessary to look for endocrine problems that may have caused seborrhea. Your dog's treatment plan will focus on treating the underlying cause of seborrhea in addition to managing seborrhea itself.

Most dogs with secondary seborrhea will be treated with medicated baths and anti-seborrheic topical medications to improve the skin, but this will not fix the underlying cause of seborrhea.

Dogs with bacterial skin infections will need antibiotics for the infection. Antifungal medications are used for yeast or fungal infections. External parasites are treated with oral or topical formulas to kill the parasites. Treatment may last weeks to months depending on the severity of the skin condition.

If an endocrine condition like hypothyroidism, Cushing's disease, or Diabetes mellitus is found, your vet will work to treat the condition with the proper medications. It can take weeks to months for these conditions to be controlled and seborrhea to improve. Most endocrine conditions require lifelong treatment and management, including daily medications and regular vet visits for screening. If the endocrine condition is under control, seborrhea should not return (unless it has a different cause).

Dogs with allergies may need ongoing treatment for secondary infections and secondary seborrhea. Your veterinarian might refer you to a veterinary dermatologist for allergy testing and management. Dogs with severe allergies may need to be treated with allergy injections for a period of months to years. Allergies and secondary seborrhea may recur from time to time, especially with season changes.

Dog Odor and Skin Infections
Skin infections are common in many dogs. While infections are typically caused by allergies or other skin problems, they may be worsened by frequent swimming, especially if the coat takes a long time to dry completely. When dogs shake after getting wet, they are able to remove a lot of water from their coats. However, this is not enough in dogs with water repellent or thick coats. Dogs with skin folds may develop infections in the creases where air does not reach the skin to dry it.

The odor of a skin infection is generally worse than the usual "wet dog" smell. It is often sour and quite foul. A sour smell may be the first sign of a skin infection. Take a good look through the fur and see if you notice any bumps, sores, boils, or rashes which can occur anywhere. The skin may also look red, flaky, or excessively greasy. You may feel a greasy or waxy coating on the skin. Many skin infections also make the dog itchy.

Do Your Dog's Feet Smell Like Corn Chips?
If you think your dog has a skin infection is present, contact your vet for advice. In some cases, your dog will need medical treatment in the form of antibiotics or antifungals. Your vet may also recommend applying a medication topically and/or bathing your dog with a medicated shampoo.

If your vet does not feel that your description warrants an in-person visit, you may be able to use an over-the-counter product to ease your dog's skin. Or, you may try a homemade solution made from equal parts water and vinegar (white or apple cider vinegar). Spray the mixture on your coat and do not rinse. Allow the coat to air-dry. You can also use this spray as the last step after shampooing with a good de-greasing shampoo and towel drying your dog well. Once your dog is dry, the vinegar odor should fade.

If your dog is prone to skin infections, ask your vet about nutritional supplements and special diets that can prevent their recurrence.

How Frequently Should My Dog Get a Bath?
Truthfully, unless your dog has an underlying skin condition, they don't actually need a bath unless they are smelly or especially dirty. On average, most dogs only need to be bathed on a monthly basis. You can bathe them less frequently, but it is not recommended to bathe any less frequently than every three months. You can also bathe them more frequently, but it is not recommended to bathe any more frequently than every other week. Giving your dog a bath more frequently than every other week can cause dryness and irritation of the skin as well as stripping of the natural oils in your dog's fur.

Obviously, every other week to every 3 months is a huge window so narrowing it down to 'once a month on average' is allowing for a big swing in either direction. How can you know if monthly baths are too frequent or infrequent for your dog? One thing that can effect bathing frequency is your dog's normal activity. Does your dog spend a lot of time outside? Do you take your dog hunting or have them participate in field trials? You may need to bathe dogs romping around in the woods and underbrush more frequently than a dog that spends most of their time inside. Does your dog shed a lot or are they considered to be a hypoallergenic breed that doesn't shed? Brushing can help pull out loose fur from your dog's coat to prevent shedding, but bathing can really help pull all that loose fur out. If it's the middle of shedding season, your shedding dog may need more frequent bathing.
