Scratching for almost three weeks
Hi,
I have a new dog for three weeks now, two days after he came he started scratching, before that the vet put him on spot on his neck for ticks, so we suspected that it’s allergic reaction, i gave him shower with anti allergic shampoo, and the doctor gave him injection for allergies but it didn’t work. Also the doctor gave us cortisone cream and didn’t work. The breeder that i got him from said it could be stress, so i went to another vet who prescribed histaminic, after this medication the scratching decreased a lot. But after stopping the medication it came back. Now i noticed, some small white flakes on his skin but not everywhere.
A note, at the beginning he was scratching so badly at the back of his ears but now in different areas. He plays a lot under the bed, the floor is clean but of course the bottom of the mattress there could be some dust. In addition i have a lot of plants at home, but nothing within his reach.
