I'm hoping someone on here will be able to help! Holly has been scratching, chewing and biting herself almost constantly for the last few days. When it first started, I assumed that her flea drops had worn off a bit early, so I gave her a new dose on Wednesday. Still itchy. Last night, I gave her a bath, thinking maybe she got into some grass or other natural itchy stuff during our search and rescue training. This morning, she is still itchy. I am really starting to get worried as I just noticed she's chewed a bare spot onto her tail.
Holly is the only one of my three dogs that's itching like this. I heard last week that the German lines are more sensitive to weather changes than others (it just got really hot and dry here last week) but I don't know if that's true. I am on the edge of giving her a bit of Benadryl to see if that helps. Does anyone have any idea what this might be? Is the rumor about German lines true? She shows no signs of fleas, a rash, etc. Her skin looks normal! Grrrr! Any advice is much appreciated.
