Skin Problems

December 28, 2007 5:36am CST
I have a pug and she has always had this thing about scratching her back up against anything. I have heard that Pugs has environmental alleries and are allergic to flea bites. My question is... What are some of your suggestions or things that work to relieve her of her itchy skin

Hi Testim... My vet that I used to take her too, suggested the Benadryl, over the counter medicine for allergies. We only have one vet here in town, and he is ridicously high... Most people in my town are taking their pets 30 minutes out of town to a vet. thanks for the advice.

oh yes yes yes yes My Pug Otis had a HUGE problem with this! - First I had to switch his dog food, which helped -Natures Recipe Venison also you can buy stuff for 'hot spots' at petsmart - you can also ask the vet! Good luck with the itchy Puggy!

Thanks so much for the info. I have heard several people say their vets recommends them giving Benadryl.... you know... over the counter medicine. This is not the first I have heard this. I may try it along with changing the food.
