Some pups do have a drier coat, which normally improves when they shed out the puppy coat. My rescue girl came to me with a very dry, rough, patchy red coat. I put her on Pro Plan Salmon and rice, which I feed to all my dogs {my Pitty Pearl had horrible skin allergies, but does great on the pro plan too}. It has been 2 months now since Koko came to live with me and her dry coat is now starting to shed off and a new shiney red coat is comming in!!

But If your pups coat does not improve as he gets older I would suggest you have his Thyroid level checked.
