| Itchy & scratchy, allergies? It seems whenever we mow the grass, My Jasper gets very itchy all over and sometimes gets scabs from scratching and biting so much. I give him 1/2 a childs benadryl when it gets really bad. Does anyone else have this problem with their yorkie? |

| It could be allergies but it could also be chiggers or even ant bites...bugs come out when the grass is mowed. What do you feed him? Does it contain chicken or corn? Those can both cause your dog to itch and scratch. |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Where is he scratching and where are the scabs? If it comes in goes w/ grass mowing - it could be what the other poster said (bugs etc); it could be a grass allergy, but then he'd probably be bothered all season...
