My dog has been whining and itching for about 4 hours straight. He's been itching already for about 2 weeks and we have given him Apoquel and a pain medication to help him for days. Last night he started to whine and was not able to sleep. He has had a loose tooth for about a month and we are thinking it could be that but there is no way we would know!

Poor Diesel. It sounds like something has made him very uncomfortable. If he is still itching excessively, it may be time to try a medicated shampoo or even oral antibiotics. Oral antibiotics may also help if he has a dental infection as well.
