    My 2 year old rottweiller has areas around his head and neck area where he has dry hard skin, This is like eczema or something like that-Its not visible but can be felt while petting his head-Anyone have any advice on skin care for my dog-He's well fed and i brush him regularly, also i have a lab and she has no issues. they are also well sheltered so this is not a problem..

    One word:

    VET

    Go and see one.

    Dogs can get dandruff, that might be what it is. They can get that if they are stressed or because of their food.
    Did you go to see a vet?

    What brand of food is he fed on and has the vet ruled out anything like flea allergy etc.

    If you haven't seen a vet take a visit and mabey they can suggest a brand of dog food to suit him. Burns is a good one I swear by it.

    Got to vet-He's fine, No flee's etc.. told to try different food-i was using Madra and am now using Pedro gold-He loves it, so for now its wait and see! Vet was not worried in the slightest as its very small and has not spread-he does not scratch either-it was something we would have but not go the doctor over!!
