Chewing and scratching! Help please! I have been feeding Pebbles Nutro puppy food since before I brought Doodlebug home at the end of June. The last time I went to buy food I think I might have grabby a different brand that looked similar but no longer have the original bag. I usually divide up the food into ziploc bags so I didn't realise until last week that the shape of the kibble was different. All of a sudden they both are scratching and chewing on their paws. Pebbles is doing this more than Doodlebug. I'm pretty sure they do not have fleas since I washed them both in Dawn and checked the water really well for any floaters.
I just purchased Natural Balance Sweet Potato and Venison for them to try and they really seem to like it. If it is the food how long will it take before they stop itching and chewing? I real so bad especially for Pebbles since she is really scratching more. Could it be their heartworm meds? Treats or maybe latex toys? I have a very bad latex allergy and just realized some of their toys had latex and tossed them out since I was itching too.
Is there a good shampoo that will help with the itching?
