have a reaction. He was allergic to the grains in the food.
I switched him to Acana and he has cleared all up.

I was going to say maybe it is environmental.....
Riley also has them but he only gets round marks on his tummy.
?!?!

I am able to give him 1/2 a benadryl twice a day if I need to.
She's been on it for maybe... 5 months? we've really had luck with this food!

Oh, that third picture sort of looks like she might have a staph infection. Since this is on her legs and belly, I would be more inclined to think it is from grass. When they scratch, they end up with infections. Definitely needs to be seen by the vet imho.
Thanks for the information! I've been trying to wipe her down with baby wipes when we come in from inside. It's too soon to tell if its helping. She's definitely going to the vet tomorrow or Tuesday, whenever they have an opening. I hope its not staph .
