speckles and dodo
My 12 year old daschund is constantly scratching and biting himself til wounds appear on his body. We have tried bathing and special shampoos for dry skin but nothing seems to working. Also we have tried the product hot shot to no avail either. If someone can advise me as to what else I can try it would be greatly appreciated!
 
What are you feeding him? It is possible he has developed food allergies, or it could be an allergy to something external. Have you been to the vet? Maybe they can run tests for skin disorders or allergies that might cause itchy scratchies.

I would take him to the vet also. The cause could be dry skin or something "simple" like that, but the wounds are propably already inflamed and need treatment.
