Seborrhea
Seborrhea is a common skin condition that causes excessive scaling, dandruff, and oily skin in dogs. The skin may become greasy, flaky, and develop an unpleasant odor, making your pet uncomfortable. While some dogs inherit seborrhea genetically, it is often associated with underlying health conditions such as allergies, hormonal imbalances, infections, or nutritional deficiencies.
Proper diagnosis is essential to identify the root cause and provide effective long-term treatment.
