Dry Skin
Dry skin is another major concern for Shih Tzu owners, as these dogs are prone to experiencing this problem. Reducing the occurence of dry skin is primarily about proper grooming, hygiene, and diet. Keeping your dog groomed, clean, and healthy can have a tremendous impact on his or her skin health. Make sure to clean and groom on a regular basis because their fur puts them at a high risk of dry skin.
As with the above, other problems may occur that cause dry skin and irritation, like fleas and allergies. Manage these to avoid any skin problems.
