Dahitman44 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I have a yellow lab that is two and he seems to scratch his skin a lot -- Dry skin?I don;t think it is fleas -- he was just in for a bath not long ago.Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleye Guy Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 He could be having some reaction to his food. One of my labs had this a few years ago. We switched food and the scratching went away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walleyes12 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 My pup was doing the samething, We gave him a bath with a pet shampoo with Aleo Vera in it, and it worked like a charm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnie15 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Our lab was scratching and chewing on her feet until they were raw for about a week after her bath. We switched to a vet recommended shampoo and it stopped right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duckbuster Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Could very well be allergies. Ask your vet about that as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ole54868 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Try a different shampoo and if that doesn't work try a different dog food. I had that happen with my female and I changed dof food and problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
