Yes he did a scrape before settling on allergies as the initial diagnosis.

The allergies came on very suddenly last summer, previously I would have described him as cast iron nothing bothered him but he woke up one day scratching and nothing we did helped. The vet did a skin scrape thinking it could be mites but that came back negative. Over £600 of tests later and he came back with the diagnosis that Duncan is allergic to many many common items including dust and grass.

We have him on a salmon and potato complete food (he cannot have rice or chicken/beef/lamb/pork). And he has as a treat a carrot for his breakfast and a small tin of tuna in the evening which he shares with our big Retriever cross Mollie.
