Dry skin on the scalp is a condition which is actually caused due to a variety of reasons. One of the reasons is the person has dandruff. Dandruff is caused by having a fungus called malassezia on your scalp. It's often treated with an anti-fungal shampoo containing selenium or zinc pyrithione.

Although it is believed that you can get dandruff from someone else, there is no proof to support this, but it is highly recommended that you do not share things that you put on your head like your hat, hairbrush, or comb due to the possibility of catching dandruff or head lice among other things.

I recommend getting Puppy Dandruff Shampoo to help with the dandruff problem.
