We have 2 dogs a Lab and a pittbull mix. We live on the water.. a creek. We have enjoyed the water for generations. We still enjoy swimming. Our two dogs have gone swimming for 10 years in the creek, the past two years our Pittbull mix gets very itchy after swimming. We bath him after, and we have spent thousands of dollars at the vet getting to the bottom of it. We bought an electric fence to keep the dogs out, yet they still go in which is frustrating. We tried steroid shots, different meds, allergy meds, we even recently got all of his blood work don't for allergy tests. The made a special formula shot just for his allergies. That worked, until he got into the creek. He is not pulling his hair out of all areas, his skin is hot, and he is miserable. We have tried everything and are at a loss. Has anyone had a dog have this form swimming? And if so any suggestions please!
Thank you so much!
