Funny you say that.... Jackson was itching a bit more than usual, too, and I know we live close. Not, like, obsessively, or to the point where it TOO worrisome (he just checked out perfect at the vet; fecal was good, no fleas, bloodwork perfect, etc). So I attributed it to the food or the environment, but his little red bumps (very very little, hardly noticeable, that I saw on his tummy) are now gone after getting through the bag of new food, which is grain-free. I am not sure it makes a huge difference, but in general, his condition just seems better on grain-free to me. No more itchies and we are nearly through the bag of food. He began getting a bit itchier after eating Fromm (grain inclusive) and I'll be so sad if it really was the culprit because I lovelovelove Fromm as a company and their products. Luckily, they do have two new grainfrees coming out in January so I'll be anxious to try them and see if it makes a difference at all.
Anyways sorry I am not much help. Maybe it's something environmental since they both had a little case of the itchies. |
