What kind of food and shampoos do you use? What about treats? That stuff is super important to see what the dog is taking in. Let me know and I will help you as much as I can.

He Could Have A Skin Allergy. Take Him To A Vet As Soon As Possiable. You May Have To Change His Food If It Is A Skin Allergy. Also, Have You Checked For Fleas?

He is really young to be having trouble with allergies already (dogs usually do not start having trouble with allergies until after a year), and it does not sound like allergies. He may have some type of mite or external parasites. I would call a vet.

How long have you had him? It could be many different things. How often do you bathe him? Maybe you are doing it to much? It could be dempdex? I would take him to his vet and get a check up. Good luck.

First of all, you need to have your vet run some tests to first determine WHAT your dog is allergic to. You can't do anything about the allergies until you know what you're fighting. Your vet can do this by a simple blood test, or by intradermal skin testing (which is more invasive and, likely, more expensive ... but also considered far more accurate).



There are many types of allergies:



-Flea Allergies (the protein in the fleas' saliva triggers an allergic reaction and keeping fleas at bay will, of course, help prevent this).



- Atopic Allergies (inhalant allergies, seasonal allergies, mold/dust/pollen ... airborne particles can come into contact with your dog through respiritory system or the skin)



- Food Allergies (allergic to certain parts of the diet, usually a grain or type of protein that causes the immune system to react)



I posted a large amount of info on Dog Allergies recently on Yahoo!Answers, and many others did as well ... just search a little and there's a lot of info for you. Good luck!

He could have mange, you should go to the vet to get a skin scraping.



Or



He could be allergic to grass. I knew a Boxer that could break out into hive when she would lie in the grass.



Or



You may be washing him too often. When you do wash him, though, use an oatmeal shampoo, it helps soothe irritated skin.

Due to his age, I would seriously look into bring him to your vet. Pups are prone to "red mange" or demadex. Its non-contagious to humans, but needs to be medically treated as soon as possible to prevent further irritation and infection, not to mention to relieve his discomfort. There are a couple ways to treat it and it will clear up in due time. Good luck!!
