Question by polly23: My is my Dog Braking out with a skin rash?
I have a 4 year old cocker spaniel. When I adopted him at the age of 2 he was always healthy. Once he turned 3, I realized he has be scratching a lot, and had these little red spots. I immediately took him to the vet, The vet told me he had skin allergies, she gave him anti-biotics and she recommended for me to change his food. I changed his food to TASTE OF THE WILD Salmon flavor. I kept him away from any type of grains, beef, yeast, all the other things that are known to affect dogs with food allergy. He got better, his rash went away for a year. However…. my husband and I relocated from New York to New Hampshire. I started to noticed My dog has been scratching a lot. I thought it was fleas….But it wasn’t. I took a look at his coat and… it look dry and brittle. He had hives all over his body, like little pink spots. He is had flaking of the skin all over his coat. some of his hair started to fall off.. I FREAKED OUT! I started taking him oatmeal baths with non-sented shampoos. I changed his food again to a more expensive No grain food from Blue Buffalo,. I rubbed his body down with rich organic coconut oil and I added fish oil to his food. I have to take him baths 2Xs a week or else he would start itching again, a bad odor would come from him, and his coat would pile up with skin flakes. I needed to keep his coat clean and conditioned so he wont itch and he can sleep in peace. Recently I went NY to visit the family for the holidays, I stood in NY for 3 weeks. I noticed throughout that period of my stay, my dog’s coat changed to a shinny clean coat, and all his hives went away. I did not see him scratch.. not once. He was skin allergy was gone. I came back to New Hampshire last week, My dog is sick again. He is back on with his skin allergy. Took him out… and he broke out with pink hives all over his tummy, all the way to upper chest….Itching, scratching, Licking, Biting, and scales off dead skin coming out from his coat. I had to get him a buzzed down so I can moisturize his skin. I Spent so much money on vet bills. He back on Anti-biotics. This is nuts! I wonder is its the grass down here or something?? has anyone been through this with their pet???
No Carpets in apartments, Hard wood flooring. No harsh chemicals. Non scented laundry detergent to wash pets bed and sheets.
I meant I have hardwood floors throughout the entire apartment.

Wow! That’s crazy! I would say that it is something either in the grass or in the air in New Hampshire! I’ve never heard of something like this before! I would try and keep an eye on him for a few days.He may be eating something or rolling in something he shouldn’t be and that could be causing the skin irritation. You can also try another brand of food or a special kind of shampoo or soap that helps skin irritation. That’s all I can think of besides bringing him in to the vet again. I hope this helps and your dog gets better!
