I switched to the wellness sweet potato and whitefish food --no more carrots. Same thing--at first he is much improved...then the itching returns. Could he be allergic to something outdoors? Any ideas on alternatives for food? Or will he take benadryl forever?

TIA,

I would tell you to call your vet. Believe it or not, some dogs are allergic to veggies, and that could be causing the problem.
