Domenic I am not sure about the Dog Food by Hills you are trying, not familiar with it at all... but I do know that when dogs eat dog food that is causing them the itchies the dog is full of toxins. So it does take sometime to get this out of their system. Its called detox. (duh) My female I mentioned was put on homecooking when she was about 2 years old and she quit itching almost immediately, then I got lazy went back to dog food. About 3.5 years ago (she was now 7 years old) I switched back to RAW when I lost "my boy" to cancer. That time it took her most of the summer to quit her itching. She would get tiny little bumps on her skin too. She stays relatively free from itching now, blowing coat will sometimes get her going again. I realise I keep talking about just one dog, but I have had mulitple dogs with some of this itchiness and good clean human grade food always solved the problem for me. One male I did do the testing and shots on, it did not work.

I also realise feeding RAW or Homecooked is not for everyone, its why I would suggest trying a food with minimal ingredients.  Add some enzymes,probiotics, and fish oils too, high in omegas. Wish ya luck!

Raw is the way to go as The Yellow Rose say's       But if you have to feed kibble look into Canine Complete  at  www.thewholisticpet.com     Give it a couple of weeks and watch the difference.    Read the testamonials on the site a lot of them have to do with itching.

A lot of the itching problems come from all the crap they put in commerical dog food especially kibble.

I feed my 16 week old GSD pup Urban Wolf and raw meat with Canine Complete wild salmon oil and goats milk yogurt and organic cottage cheese. It's basically a BARF diet.

You can't believe the way the pup looks everyone says what are you doing to make him look so good.

Very easy I educated myself on dog nutrition and prompletly thru out a bag of $65.00 premium kibble. Ever since then my pup stopped scratching and the bloat went right away. He looked like a completely different dog.

The information is right here on the internet   Take the time to educate yourself.  I'll bet once you find out what is in your favorite kibble and who makes it.  You'll throw  it right in the garbage that is right where it belongs.

Trailrider:  I guess that shows hold old I am : I grew up when a plant in the house or outside in a pot is called a "Pot Plant"   but now I guess I have to say a "Potted Plant"   on the Max site I said send the people a 'Pot Plant" and 4pack said yeah and give the leo a good reason to go back to the house!   LOL   I call refrigerators  Ice boxes and of course I never saw one used , but my mother who was a Yankee always called our refrigerator an Icebox and what you learn in your youth usually sticks in some part of the brain...so I usually say  put it in the icebox   habit!!!!!

I imagine if you had a pot plant maybe if the dog ate some of it ,hed cure his itching or go into orbit....
