| Constant Scratching!! So Jax seems to have an itching problem, it was awful the first two days we had him but has calmed down now but still happens alot. He doesn't have fleas but i am front lining him today as it's never been done. I thought perhaps he has a problem with the bakers puppy food as the scratching has slightly decreased with the less bakers hes getting and the more wainwrights. I am supplementing his food with cod liver oil, however the wainwrights does contain this as well. Any other ideas on what it could be? Or how to calm it down, i can't see any redness. |

| Thanks Hes in for first his vaccinations and microchip on friday so will get the vet to do a once over check of health then. To be honest i doubt hes ever seen a vet at all!! If the previous owners never vaccinated they probably never got him vet checked. |

| Poor baby. A vet check is a good idea. It could be diet, shampoo, or like sugarmamma said even yeast. Hopefully the vet will help in finding the problem.

| I agree only a Vet would know for sure. Could also be allergies, walking dandruff (from a mite), and a dry skin issue that medicated shampoo will help. |
