Hello, & thank you for using Boop by Petco. You can try switching Helios to a diet made for sensitive skin. Hills Science Diet makes a good one. Just switching to a grain free dog food will not cut it. If the Sensitive Skin Diet does not help, then I like one of the salmon based limited ingredient diets. Next, make sure you are using a good flea product on a very regular basis. Frontline Gold, Bravecto, Comfortis, or Nexgard I feel are the best out there. Start Helios on a fish oil capsule, human or dog quality. I would give him about between 1000-1200 mg twice a day. You can bathe him in a very mild oatmeal shampoo, using cool water. You can bathe him twice a week if it helps. If none of these seem to help, talk to your vet about the two newest & greatest allergy medications available to dogs now - Apoquel & Cytopoint.. I hope Helios finds some good relief soon. Take care.

Petco should have an inflatable collar that works like an e-collar. It looks a lot like an inflated inner tube and it helps keep her from being able to turn her head far enough to reach her incision site.

I would recommend that you take Halo to a pet store, like PetCo, so you can try out different types of harnesses. There are many different styles, and the best fit will depend on many factors, including the size and shape of Halo. If you use it with a tie-out, then make sure that it can't cinch down tighter when she pulls, since that could be uncomfortable and may cause breathing issues.

If there is a secondary bacterial infection, I would recommend using product called Duoxo Chlorhexidine + Calm shampoo and bathe twice weekly until resolved. I would also recommend picking up a hydrocortisone spray (Well and Good at Petco) and apply daily to the affected area to relieve inflammation. If it does not resolve or worsens, I would have a veterinarian take a look at Harley so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I hope this helps!

Unfortunately, there are no veterinary clinics located in Petco stores in your area - yet. You can get vaccinations done at Vetco vaccination clinics, as well as heartworm and flea and tick prevention. Be sure you get Tars in before he is 6 months of age, and he won't need a heartworm test. He should also be dewormed against intestinal parasites. Vetco vaccine clinics don't charge an exam fee, but they will charge you for the vaccinations - here is a link to a map of Petco's in your area with Vetco clinics: chttps://www.vetcoclinics.com/services-and-clinics/clinic-locations-and-schedules/?zip=60606#maptop . Also, their prices for services are here: https://www.vetcoclinics.com/services-and-clinics/vaccination-packages-and-prices/ . Finally, you can get nail trimming and anal gland expression done at the grooming salon in your Petco, and most of them even offer training. So pick the one that is most convenient for you!
