Tibbe was on the RC Gastrointestinal formula and likely something in that was what he was allergic to. But his scratching was so bad that once he was diagnosed as a probably MVD-sufferer and put on a hepatic diet, I was scared to use the RC brand just in case there was some ingredient in all of the food formulae. I just couldn't take the chance as his scratching was really bad.
A vet does need to see your dog, told of his food, treat ingredients and a video of his scratching sessions to help figure out what is causing the itching and to give him something to help relieve the severe itching. When Tibbe was ill and having his itching, we were at the vet repeatedly and he was checked out thoroughly each time but thankfully his problem was solved simply by just changing his food back to his old brand and staying with Hill's when we needed to add the hepatic formula. I hope your dog's problem is solved as simply as Tibbe's was.
