The winter and dry weather has been horrible for him, though. He keeps itching to the point of bleeding, so he has to wear a sweatshirt all the time so that he can't itch himself (and to keep him warm). I've been baby oiling him and giving him baths with his medicated shampoo, and that seems to be helping. When he got really bad, we broke out the prescription steroids (for his allergies) and those really helped a lot. We try not to keep him on them all the time, but I was really glad we had them last week. Poor dogger.
