She gets them all down the back side of her back legs and around the base of her tail. She sits and barks at me because she cannot scratch it and is frustrated. I have this shampoo the I got from the vet, chlora??? something. It is a antibacterial, antifungal, etc. for skin problems. Bathing her in this usually helps, but this flair up has lasted for over a month. I feed my babies Flint River Ranch dog food and grain free organic canned food. So I cannot imagine that it would be a food allergy. I have been applying cortisone cream to these areas and it gets better, but comes right back. has anyone had any issues like this with their dogs?? I will probably have to take her to the vet. I just wonder if this is some kind of allergy? |
Yes it could easily be a food allergy. Look at the entire list of ingredients in a bag or can of dog food. There are many, many things listed, and any one of them could be toxic.
