Dandruff

Question:

My 9 month old male has tiny dandruff flakes all over. I rinse him with warm water occasionally (he gets very dirty) but I never bathe with shampoo (last time I did was when he rolled in manure last summer :P). It doesn't itch at all, so I'm not too worried about an infection or parasites. I know my skin gets dry in the wintertime- could that be what's wrong with his? Any suggestions?
