Itchy Vicki

Vicki gets Frontline regularly and flea baths too but lately I've noticed her scratching quite a bit. She'll actually scratch to the point of yelping which I find disturbing. When I mentioned this to the vet he said pugs commonly develop skin irritations and the best treatment is continued use of omega 3's. Vicki now takes a caplet of omega 3 fatty acids. It'll take some time to see the effect it has on her scratchy skin but it can't do her any harm. What with her raw food diet, regular exercise and supplements I estimate she's gonna live longer than us and more comfortably so too with no skin irritations.
