Love Scratching and Itching with Alyssa

My dog, Alyssa, has very sensitive skin and allergies. She got to the point about 2 years ago where all she did was bite and scratch at her skin. We went to the vet several different times and each time either got allergy medicine or steroids. The steroids would help until they were used up and then it was back to scratching. Our next step was going to be allergy tests which are expensive. I was feeding Royal Canin Yorkshire Food. I changed to another brand and it stopped. Because of the recall of food I changed back from the brand she was eating and went back to Royal Canin because I thought it was safe and had not been recalled. Alyssa started back itching and scratching. I then changed to Canidae on April l3th of this year. Since then there has been no scratching and itching. I have not determined the exact cause of the scratching but truly believe that there is something in the RC that she is alergic to.
