ok, so, i have another possible for iorek's itching... maybe he is allergic to chicken?? i don't know! he mostly eats chicken, with some turkey necks, lamb ribs, pork neck, beef neck, beef tongue and heart, plus beef organs. do you think that he could be allergic to chicken?? he always scratched but never so much as the last few months. i know that most kibbles are chicken based but he was eating eagle pack holistic select duck and oatmeal for about a month and a half before switching to raw. the itching really seems to have gone up a lot in the last few months. what do you think? he has been eating raw since dec 20th.
also, does anyone have experience with giving their dogs benadryl? my friend thought for a while that he dog might have had environmental allergies and she tried benadryl and it seemed to help a little but not a lot since now they are thinking it might be something else. do you think i could give iorek benadryl for a while to get the itching gone and try eliminating chicken from his diet and see what happens? (i love being able to eliminate things completely from his diet and know for sure it is not there!! i love that i know exactly what he is eating!!)
