I'm so glad that his itching and scratching has stopped! Like I told you, Bonita, Dar had the same thing and it got so bad with her scratching and biting on one certain spot in her left hip, it scared the spit out of me because she constantly had a raw, bleeding place there, and would scratch SO much she couldnt even sleep at night---and she kept me awake by scratching, too. My vet said it was "allergies" and we went with the cortizone shots, and antibiotics because of the deep lesions she kept inflicting herself with, and it just never did totally go away. He said it was not any type of mange (I had some concerns about that) and it didnt really spread---but she itched herself constantly for 4 months and it was driving us both crazy! The borax bath stopped her from itching, and she is healing up very nicely on that spot that was bald and raw for so long.
YAY NIBBLER! You're gonna be all right, dude!  |
