Food & NutritionOur 10 month old lab, staffordshire mix scratches and chews on herself. The vet recommended switching her food to Pro Plan Sensitive which we are doing right now by blending her food. I am wondering if there is any other supplement or vitamin that
You could put her on a fatty acid supplement, like Free Form Snip tips and see if that helps. I am not sure the exact cause of her itching but she could have allergies, mites, skin infection, etc. Your vet could do a skin scrape, cytology, and/or a culture to help determine the exact cause. She might need allergy medications (Apoquel and Cytopoint) to help control the itching. Make sure you check her for fleas by combing her with a flea comb and also use a flea/tick prevention, like Nexgard, Bravecto, Frontline, Advantage Multi, etc.
