My poor wire-haired fox terrier is really suffering from itchy skin this summer. We have had him at the vets and completed a course of tablets, that didn't work. I have also tried piriton [vets advice] which just seemed to send him to sleep and didn't stop the itchies.
I am now using a gunk called Non-Stinky Stuff on all his itchy bits [company that develops natural remedies for agricultural animal skin problems and has now branched into domestic pets]. The trouble is that his fur is so thick, I can't get it on his skin, but I'm trying!
He is chewing his paws off and scratching his joints so badly they are bleeding and he is left panting and in distress.
We are seeing the vet again on Wednesday [earliest they could see him].
Any ideas please?
