This summer we have been letting him go outside in the grass-- with supervision of course- but just this weekend noticed his back legs are almost bald- major hair loss.. He is itching terrible- just gave him some benadryl. Any advice?? I am calling the vet in the morning but he is miserable- he has scratched red marks under his front legs-( like our armpit) so to speak... I have aveno oatmeal bath but do not know if I should bath him.. His normal shampoo and conditioner is Chris Christiansen- and used it since he was a baby-- He will be 2 in september. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |
kiele will be a year this month and was just going through the same thing. the vet put her on antibiotics and steriods w/ antihystmine.(sp?) Its gotten better so far. She just finished the meds friday so we will see!
