My lab mix is 4 years old and has been biting and chewing his feet and legs,also rubbing his face! I'am beside myself as to what can be done to stop the dogs agony! The vet gave him two shots of cortizone, but it only helped for a short time and now he is right back to the same old scratching and biting! I have had to put him in a hood to keep him from mutilating his skin! Can you please help me? My dogs name is buddy and my e-mail address is gayschmidt@aol.com Please reply as soon as you can,as I need an answer right away! This is no way for a dog to have to live!!! Thank you,hope you can help!!
