What supplements can I give my large dog to help with dandruff?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Male | neutered | 9 years and 6 months old | 130 lbs

Seems like simple answer to me but I read your previous questions and it seems like you have sent them all to the vet for dandruff.. The problem is my 130lb rotterman doesn’t like you it’s not your smell it is your fear he cannot stand. The first thing your gonna want is a muzzle that is where the problem begins cause he knows in about a minute your gonna stick a needle in him. His dandruff is not bad it is just dandruff can u give me list of supplements to use please? He eats science diet food

I recommend starting him on VetriScience Derma Strength daily chews as well as Nutramax Welactin Canine Omega 3 Liquid Dog Supplement. If the dandruff does not resolve/improve within 2-3 weeks on these supplements I recommend sending pics with your next question. Good luck!
