Abstrakt: Simple Summary: Greasy skin and excessive skin scaling accompany numerous dermatoses. Rapid and sustainable improvement of skin appearance and application practicability are important features to enhance the dog's appearance and encourage owner compliance. The study aimed to evaluate the tolerance and performance of one shampoo and subsequent mousses applications containing plant extracts in dogs with greasy skin. Six dogs were washed with plain water on day (D)0 and served as negative controls. Twelve dogs were shampooed on D0 and received eight mousse applications at 48–72 h intervals from D2 to D18. Skin was evaluated on D0, D0 + 4 h, D7, D14 and D24. At baseline, there were no significant differences observed between groups. In the control group, skin appearance and lipid contents remained stable throughout the study. Skin lesions and malodour were significantly reduced in the test group from D7 with no side effects. Hydration and hair lipids levels decreased in the test group at D0 + 4 h and returned to baseline from D14 and D7 on, respectively. In conclusion, one shampoo and subsequent mousse applications rapidly and safely improved coat and skin appearance in dogs with greasy skin and dandruff without affecting water and hair lipid contents. The study aimed to evaluate the tolerance, performance and effect on hair lipids and skin hydration of a protocol combining applications of one shampoo and subsequent mousses containing plant extracts (Ophytrium and Seboliance) in dogs with an undiagnosed chronic greasy keratinisation disorder. Six dogs were washed with plain water on day (D)0. Twelve dogs were shampooed on D0 and received eight mousse applications at 48–72 h intervals from D2 to D18. Clinical score (CS), Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF) and hair lipids (HL) were evaluated on D0, D0 + 4 h, D7, D14 and D24. At baseline, no significant differences were observed in CS, NMF and HL between groups. In the control group, CS and HL remained stable throughout the study while a slight decrease in NMF was observed at D0 + 4 h. CS was significantly reduced in the test group between D0 and D7 (−53%) which reached 91% at D24 (p < 0.05), with no side effects. NMF levels decreased in the test group at D0 + 4 h (−73%, p < 0.0001) and returned to baseline from D14. In conclusion, one shampoo and subsequent mousse applications rapidly and safely improved coat quality in dogs with an undiagnosed keratinisation disorder without affecting NMF and HL contents over the study period.
