Thread: Slightly greasy fur and over sensitivity!?

Could just be when he has a coat change that he goes a bit greasy that would also account for his fur being shorter on his legs too,don't know why he should seem so sensitive all the while though that normally goes along with a skin irritation as well. You could try just putting some powder in his coat & brushing it out to try & absorb some of the grease,I always use grooming powder but a lot of people get on fine with talcum powder,I think I would use a baby powder though as it is fine & less scented, I tried ordinary bathroom powder once & I found it soo heavy it actually made it worse.If he will let you brush the coat up the wrong way after putting the powder in & then brush it back it will get right to the base of the coat for you.
Hopefully that will work & you won't have to put yourself & bathroom at risk again,if it normally comes right anyway I think I would try & avoid the big wash....x
