Why is it important to have a routine for dry skin?
Understanding the factors contributing to dry skin in dogs is essential for effective management and prevention. Dry skin in dogs can manifest as flakiness, itchiness secondarily, and discomfort, that can significantly impact dog’s well-being. Causes are various and are not always manageable by itself, so that’s why controlling skin hydration and dandruff have to be done with skin solutions. Here are some reasons why a routine is important:
Ensures comfort: By addressing dryness, you alleviate itching and discomfort, promoting a happier, healthier pet. A well-designed routine helps alleviate symptoms and keeps the dog more comfortable longer.
Prevents complications/underlying issues: Regular care helps monitor skin health, preventing escalation of potential problems like allergies or infections and allows to react quickly if necessary.
Reinforces the bond: Grooming sessions create positive experiences, deepening the connection between you and your dog.

What can be a recommended routine for dry skin?
DOUXO® S3 teams developed a specific patented routine for dry skin in dogs, requiring less shampoos than usual, relying on the leave-on Mousse advantages. We recommend to bathe the dog once every 3 to 4 weeks with DOUXO® S3 SEB Shampoo, to remove dirt, debris, allergens, crusts, etc. mechanically and then use DOUXO® S3 SEB Mousse every 2-3 days. The mousse is complementary of the shampoo, bringing the ingredients for a long-lasting contact.
This protocol has been clinically proven and recommended by veterinarians throughout the world.
