He still "blows"...that's a perfect way of putting it. When I first got him, he was dry, his skin was ratty, and he was a bit dehydrated. I soaked him a few days in a row to rehydrate him and to loosen up some retained shed. He shed for me a couple of weeks later and his respiratory sounds were greatly reduced. He never had any signs of RI, but I do think he had some dry, loose skin. He still "breathes", but not as badly as that first dry shed.
