Storm Angel n Auroras Mum Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 My two are very itchy, and dont have fleas Im sure of it. I have checked them. So why are they scratching and biting themselves like mad? And what can I do to ease their itching? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormchaser09 Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 could be a grass allergy, my last old boy used to get a terrible itchy red tummy every summer due to running in grass, Flea saliva apparently can cause an allergic type reaction although the dogs don't show signs of actually having fleas, Mums collie(again) always seems to be itchy and we have changed her food, which helped and those were suggestions given by the vet. Mum now gives her a herbal crunchy treat every day and that seems to have helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
