It could be allergies or infection (bacterial, fungal, mites). Fleas or flea bites also cannot be ruled out. Treat Bogard and the environment for fleas to be sure. Consider an exam with your veterinarian to diagnose and treat infection. Discuss allergy testing, hydrolyzed diets, food elimination trials and antihistamine use with your veterinarian. An e-collar or small tee shirt can be used to prevent licking, chewing or scratching.
