Question:

My Jack Russell, Rocky Fella, just this spring developed a skin condition. In between his toes, and on his butt. It itches him and he is miserable...and so are we.
The vet says it is an allergic reaction to perhaps grass. He rec. to change diet to lamb & rice &
I am giving him some medication. The vet says he cannot stay on this med. for to long.
I would like to find an alternative, do you have any sugestions? Homeopathy? herbally?
Thanks for your time,
Francesca
