Skin condition....... HELP PLEASE

I don't know what his dogs had but I have several now , my black plott gyp especially that has developed a staph infection . it has been so dry here for so long then when we finally got some rain they blew up and looked like they had been shot with bird shot . it is staph the medical routine is cephalexin and a bath with medicated shampoo that contains sulfer and bentine . I immediately started the ceph. and baths when it started and they have stabilized and looking better . it is all about the dogs ph levels on their skin . dogs have staph on their skin at all times but their body regulates it until something happens to throw them out of balance [ like dry hot to wet cold ] or a sudden change in diet . good luck to all and it ain't that hard to treat at home .

i'm glad this post was brought back I was wondering if anybody else's dogs were going thru it with the change in weather and was fixing to start a new thread .
