As long as the dog is not giving "him" the message,

sounds like the dog needs another flea treatment, it can take several times

Many dogs apparently like the feel of things brushing their backs. In greyhounds, it's referred to as "trancing". Yes, the dog may still have fleas, but it may just like the way it feels to have his back scritched that way.

Did your neighbor just wash the dog with a flea shampoo? He probably still has fleas, and he is itchy! There are oral flea meds that she can give him. Does he wear a flea collar?, since most fleas tend to go up around the neck area.

I can't help but ask. Just what kind of messages is he getting? Emails, voicemails, are the fleas talking to him? I don't understand what you mean!

Gee a dog that likes to be petted! OMG What a rarity. I think you should cuddle with that pooch. He'll love you forever

If you are talking about fleas well there is a possibility that the dog was treated. However when you treat a dog you have to remove or clean everything that the dog came in contact with before he was treated. On things like his blanket there would be many fleas so it should be washed.

Just an fyi: I believe that Laurel meant "massage", not "message".
