You could try a simple food diet, 1 protein source, 1 carb source, such as Natural Balance Venison and Rice and see if she improves.

And like Sandra said, it could be ear mites. Just to be safe, I'd have my vet examine her ears.

Interesting thought-I didn't think about having to build up before a reaction....hmmmm. I'm pretty sure it is not ear mites and I know she doesn't have fleas. She licks her paws alot too-at least it seems to me. I thought maybe it had to do with allergens outside perhaps. She was outside yesterday afternoon for a while. I also bathed her yesterday with CC stuff but that isn't the first time for that either--would a skin allergy need time as well such as a "systemic" type allergy?

Sandraj - what are mossies???

Thanks,
Jamie
