@ Val D,
You’re welcome. I’m no vet, however I have worked in healthcare and have owned dogs for decades.
I have learned a lot of things the hard way.
I would get another opinion from a different vet if you are not seeing improvement within a reasonable amount of time.
If the pruritus has been going on for 1 year/4 seasons and has not responded to treatment by the regular vet I would make an appointment with a veterinary dermatologist
Maybe I got lucky but I got good results by going that route. There are a lot of treatments available today, sometimes it is worth going to a specialist.
They can get bacterial skin infections…very uncomfortable.
