This seems like it has been an endless battle to find out why Pnut has been so itchy and red.

He wasd doing fine till Fri evening. I fed him and took him on a walk. As soon as we got home about 30 mins later he was itchy, and his whole under body was RED!!! I sprayed his stuff on him and didn't seem to help. I called the vet and he told me what I can give him, to go get it and CVS. Its called Chlorepdeamine or something.... (sp) so I gave him 1/2 a pill and it finially helped....

Dh told me that he thinks it is the wet food, bc he noticed Pnut getting itchy after I fed him. He has been on Acana grassland for ever now so I know its not the dry, I think it is the wet. I was giving him Wellness wet, he ran out and I wanted to try Blue Buffalo wet. So we think it is the wet food. I am going to take him off and see if it helps. The last time he had any was yesterday morning and it was very little.. so far so good, he hasnt been ichty or red!

Ugh! Can wet food really do that to him? Or could it be a combo of the grass and wet food?? How does anyone deal with the allergies or dogs?
