[rawfeeding] Dry skin, dull coat and shedding, oh my!

Hi all,

I read the posts about the puppy with dry skin. I'm experiencing a similar situation with
shedding thrown in for good measure. We've got two dandruffy dogs with very short coats
that are shedding like crazy! Not a good look.

I've got a boxer mix (50#) and a dutch shepherd mix (70#) that have both been on raw for
a wee bit less than two months. I've given them pork trim, beef trim, pork necks, beef
necks, chicken necks, chicken drumsticks and thighs, the odd steak/roast, organ blend,
liver, ostrich liver, some ground beef, turkey or pork, some mackerel, and like that.

I've been buying in bulk when stuff is on sale and portioning it out. We started with lots of
chicken and have phased into less chicken and more meats. They get organ blend or liver
every other meal or so.

I'm still pretty new but if I were to guess, I'd guess they're not getting enough fat? What
would you guys recommend?

Thanks so much!
