Pollen Allergy

[peek-at]

My cocker starts with his runny eyes & flaky skin every year when the tree pollen starts & the grass pollen ends. I initially had him on Chlorphenamine but switched to citirizine which is proving more effective but he still gets little scabby areas of dry flaky skin.

Does anyone have any 'revelations' for me? Something that will totally clear him up in pollen season.

Thanks

Dilute it with water. Half water and half hibiscrub. Put it in a cleaned squeezy bottle and soak a clean sponge with it. Rub it onto the affected area twice a day with the sponge. Or you can get sensitive baby wet wipes put them in a plastic box and soak them well in it to use.

I use this on our pug and setter who both get itchy skin.

Thanks for the tip. I bought some hibiscrub & after reading a few other forums on its use, have been using it at 1:100 mix and leaving it in without rinsing. Its working a treat!

Thanks
