She's getting worse with her itching. She's now got about 5 or 6 welts on her body. I put CO on them, and I give her a tiny bit to eat too. I always keep shirts on her now bc of all the scratching. Her hair breaks off so easily. I haven't given her any thing different to eat. She's on NB fish and sweet potato.

Should I ask for a steroid shot? Last time the vet recommended Missing Link. Didn't do a dang thing. She doesn't have fleas, her hair is so thin it's very easy to see down to the skin, and no flea dirt.

The only thing I can think of is I had started brushing her teeth again, but with an old tube of CET. Can toothpaste go bad? Could that somehow trigger a flare up? She's always been itchy, but lately it's gotten much worse. It's been cold and rainy here, but the week before that, hot and dry. =/

What else should I ask the vet for, and what should I try to remember to ask him.
