| Have you taken him to the vet? That would be the first step as there can be SO many different things. Is he on a grain-free diet? Does he have any fleas/is on flea medication?

| Poor fella Yeah, biting means itching. So, fleas, allergies, it could be anything. I'd consult a vet.

| Has he had a bath recently? Sometimes that helps. |

| It could be allergies, fleas, mites a whole lot of things so you really need to see your vet and let him take a look.

YT 2000 Club Member | Check his diet. What are you feeding him? I had a poodle itched like crazy. Took her to the dog derm doctor and he said put her on a venison diet. So I did. She ate Natures Receipe Venison and that skin cleared up. I used hypo allergy Hy -Lyte shampoo from my vet. That helped. So check out his food. It could just be a food allergy. |
