Paula,
I just wanted to report the latest with my dog's itching. He is DRAMATICALLY better. He is not itching, the red raw places are healing, and he also had some strange bite-looking things on his nether regions which are healing (altho he doesn't have fleas and he is inside most of the time--couldn't be bug bites). I can only guess that it was yeast or allergies. I thought about the yeast angle because I read an article online about itching dogs and they said with yeast, the dog's coat feels "greasy" which my dog's did.

I believe it is the Vit C (500 mg per day) OR the probiotic that did it. Sure would like to know, but I hate to risk it coming back to find out!

Please report if you try any of these suggestions. I would love to know what the results are. Thanks. Lisa

Nenah - you have made a very important point. While EIS is my 'ace',
maybe I'm undoing what I'm trying to do. Actually, I don't have a
clue what the cause of the itch is. The vet saying it is a yeast
problem only makes sense if I'm killing too much internal bacteria
with the EIS.

Lisa - Me, too. I've done lots of things but I haven't done Vit C.
I've likely been killing the probiotics with CS. One dog, which was
originally the worst by far, is now a bit better; the other dog is
now tearing himself up, can't sleep, cries, his skin visibly 'crawls'.

Kathryn - we're in the same boat except that you know what you're
treating. Maybe we're both shooting ourselves in the foot.

Completely OT for this group but I was given something called Karanja
Oil by a friend. I know almost nothing about it but it has healed the
scratch-wounds on my dogs asap. It is produced in India and treats a
bunch of things that I wouldn't have thought were related - mange,
psoriasis, eczema, pests on plants, etc. If it weren't an oil, I'd
smear the dogs with it.

Paula
