Just a little update.

I still haven't tried the benadryl yet although I did buy it. She hasn't had any more of those crazy spells although I have been keeping her in a onesie so that may be the reason, I am not sure. I'm going to do some testing with taking it off tomorrow to see if she's going to start itching again if it's off.

Anyway so with the FEET.. I noticed she is moreso BITING HER NAILS than itching the feet which is what I originally thought she was doing. But then I was actually sitting near her with QUIET and I hear this crunching noise and I realize she is chewing on her NAILS. Why would she do this? They are not super long or anything.

Also my trainer at pet grooming place gave me a spray they use on dogs with itchy spots called DERMACOOL. It has lidocaine, a local anesthetic. Other ingredients include Hamamelis extract, colloidal oatmeal and 1.5% lidocaine HCI, propylene glycol, glycerin, lactic acid, parachloro-metaxylenol, and menthol.

Is this safe?? She said to use it on the spots shes opened from itching, like the sores she created from licking and chewing her skin above her tail. I am not very knowledged on what is safe for dogs, this says it comes from a vet but what I want to know is if she licks or chew when this spray is on for any reason could it make her SICK if ingested? That's all I want to know. Well, that and why shes chewing her nails..
