Hi I'm new here but I love the stuff that's posted here so I was hoping if you all could help me.
I have a 6 month old cocker named Dino. About 3 weeks ago, we noticed a sort of scabby rash on his chest, under his legs (his armpits?) and around his tail. He keeps biting at these spots where the scabs are. We brought him to the vet who gave him an injection to relief the itch and also some pills and a fungal shampoo. We also regularly clean out his pen (which he sleeps in) with disinfectants and put any damp rags out of his reach (he loves stealing rags to sleep on).
Everything had been going well until a few days back when the rash came back again pretty strong. He's started his biting and scratching again and more rash has formed near his tail and it's so so heartbreaking to see him trying to scratch at his tail which he can't reach.
My friend told me that oatmeal shampoo helps relief the itching but does it reduce the rash? Please help.
