Hello all!

My girl is about 80lbs and 3 years old. She itches all the time and I am unsure if it is diet related or what the root cause is. She is fed Orijen Adult and she does get Fresh Factors and vegetables supplemented to her kibble(green beans, carrots, peas, etc).

I used to give her fish oil, but didn't see a drastic change in her itching. Some months are better than others. She was on Benadryl for awhile, but have recently taken her off and no change(better or worse).

I am wondering if it may be time for a switch of food; maybe to Kirkland? Any other recommendations? She did not like TOTW at all. I fed her that when I first rescued her and she was not happy. She loves Orijen, I'm just not sure Orijen loves her.
