It sounds like allergies. Usually they are seasonal, like people, but they can go all year. I've had 3 dogs now with allergies. Satia had fall allergies. Something in the air in the fall that bugged her, usually lasted from Sept til first frost. Montana is the worst. She had them so bad that I ended up taking her to a dermatologist and she had the scratch testing to find out what she was allergic to (just about everything). I gave her special serum shots for 2 years and she finally built up enough immunity that most of the itching stopped. Kansas has fall allergies. She will itch big time for about a month, then it's gone. Just keep an eye on Coco because allergies can get so bad that they will chew feet til they bleed. If it continues I'd go to the vet because they can give him meds to help with the itching.
