Scratch scratch, rummage rummage, my dog is driving me mad, I am being kept awake constantly by Amber (9mnths) either scratching or as I called it rummaging around her bottom. We seem to have beaten the fleas(for now) but she still has small spots on her inner thighs and in various places around her body , no idea what is causing them. She is on a raw diet albeit occasionally with additional tempters of cooker chicken or beef, as she also is a fussy little beggar. The vet told me pups don't get allergies s it couldn't be that! really!
So any ideas folks, she has mainly, from preference, been on chicken or tripe or beef foods, now I am trying lamb and salmon varieties but doesn't seem any better in fact poss worse, so is it a food allergy? maybe no, she does not spend much time (due to weather) in the garden, but has a 2 hr walk daily in the woods/fields locally. She does have worms I am trying a natural remedy at the moment...could this make her itch...but spots? Will probably bite the bullet and use wormer as she has been struggling most of the summer with both fleas and of course worms......help!
