Hi all,
I've turned to this forum for help! I've had my Frenchie Hugo since birth and he's in perfect health condition other than his skin. Within the last week he's been itching constantly and nearly always on his ribs.
His groin, tummy and neck are red and sore, with what appears to be blotchy marks. I've tried soothing anti-itch rubs, de-flea/tick, but doesn't seem to improve his condition.
I feed him a fresh food diet, which consists of this twice a day (which he has had since he started on solids)
Approx 150g roasted sweet potato
Approx 30g steamed broccoli
Approx 125g of roasted skinless chicken thigh
1 TBSP olive oil
Sprinkles of tumeric
1 Fish Oil capsule all mixed in
No treats.
I'm at a loose end here as to what to do, has anyone experienced a similar issue with a french bulldog and if so, how did you solve it? I am hesitant to go to the vet due to very high bills and diagnosis could take a while. I've attached a picture for reference for you all to look at.
Thanks!
