| Yorkie Scratching My 1 year old yorkie is scratching behind his left ear and rubbing it on the furniture at first I thought it might be mites bought him drops for his ears it worked for two days and then the scratching started again it only seems to cause him problems at night during the day he is fine no scratching? Any suggestions? |

YT 500 Club Member | My little Sophie started out the same way at about the same age. Then it moved toner neck and shoulders. We've done the cortisone ear drops (same results as yours), prednisone, blood work to identify allergies, and changed her food and treats so they didn't contain anything she showed any allergies to. But you've probably guessed she still scratches at night. She wears little newborn shirts every day (which she actually loves) so she doesn't hurt herself. The weird thing is when she is under the covers when we go to bed she doesn't scratch. It makes me crazy for her. I'd go nuts if I itched so much of the time. Poor babies.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | It could be allergies. Read this thread about how to approach allergies: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/die...tart-here.html
