Dougie has been itchy for over a year now. It’s so hard to see, so hard to deal with.

We have tried everything and every time we think we’ve got it pegged the goal posts move and he starts itching again. He’s scratching himself silly, bleeding in spots, scabs in others. It’s driving him nuts and it’s driving US nuts!

We’ve decided to save and go see a doggy dermatologist to get some real answers, since the vet seems to be at his wits end as well. Hopefully we’ll have answers soon.

In the mean time it’s the cone of shame for Dougie D. It’s the only way we can stop him licking.
