Itching tips.

Any tips/remadies to help sky stop itching? I ordered dermopt shampoo,cider vin. I've tried piriton that didn't work. Changed to raw food.What else could I try?any creams to help her skin? I'm currently using sudocream

Do you have any Aqueous cream to dab on, this may not dry the skin out so much as the sudocream and give it chance to heal ?

Coconut oil ?

if you think it's allergies you could try anthisan it's a antihistamine cream, Darcy still suffer with allergies despite being fed raw, I use anthisan when things flare up

Ooh, that does look sore. How long has she been suffering from itchy skin? How old is she?

Even though you feed raw, they can still be allergic to certain meats so look into that too. Marquez is definitely allergic to chicken and egg and scratches more as well as getting weepy/teary eyes. Fortunately no hives like my other dogs that were allergic to chicken.

MSM Soothing Cream may help as well as coconut oil.

Hi, I don't have any off the stuff you lot have mentioned but I will buy them to try. She's 4 months old and she's always had a bit off an itch but just the past couple off weeks it's gotten worse. Not sure if I should keep trying piriton as I think this caused her to have the runs this morning.

Do I apply coconut oil like a cream? Oh also she have dry hair if this means anything.

Since my photo bucket is working again here is a couple off pictures off Skye

She's a little beauty    Staffies can be prone to dry flaky skin, I used Olive Oil Cream (Kingsley House brand) on Meg, which is for sensitive skin and is also fragrance free, i.e. no perfume in it. I found this helped. I also gave her an oily fish like sardines in sunflower oil once a week and when she was on wet food and kibble I also put a little sunflower oil on her kibbles too. I read that this would help with her coat and skin. I know that you are feeding her raw, but it wasn't for Meg as she wouldn't entertain it in any way. Maybe you could try this, it shouldn't cause her any harm.

Hi daz,I already feed her whole sardines but I will defo try the sunflower oil. I think her skin isn't actually flakey but her hair looks and feels dry.

She doesn't just itch her belly she kinda like nibbles it too.

Hey over the past week I changed her food to a fish food,started her 3 days ago on coconut oil and already her itching has nearly stopped,her neck has stopped bleeding and the scabs are almost gone. Can changing food act so fast or maybe this is a coincidence? I'm so happy either way

Sounds like good progress   

Yeh, I've done a few other things like changed her bed,Hoover the sofa everyday,changing my work clothes and wash my hands as soon as I come home from work as I work with strong solvents,keeping her away from the rabbits hay so it could be any off the above or the food so ill just continue everything

Actually it could defo be my work gear that's causing it as I also work with acid that I put into big machines to get the PH levels correct and it gets on my clothes everyday lol
