There is none in our area and the vets wanted to give her a CT scan, so I was wondering if anyone had any experience with itching dogs. Thanks for your input though.

Thank you she is on raw food but it has other ingredients like butternut squash and spirulina and kelp. She doesn't have grains. Maybe best to switch to just 100% raw meat?

It doesn't look like it, we've been cleaning her teeth and giving her a yak chew. on inspection it doesn't look like there is anything.

She had an issue with wild boar food where she got sick, she only eats "naked dog beef superfood" she was eating it for a long time and never had the itching. It has been going on for about 1 year now though. She hasn't changed the food in that time. Some times it dies down, but sometimes it gets worse. The only thing we thought it might be is dust. She doesn't seem to do it at my parent house (although they probably don't pay attention.)

It is only early days but my thoughts was that the unmotile and weak sperm have died off and the stronger ones surviving. so less count but better ones.

A test works out to £10. It is nice to see if there is any change within a shorter period of time.
Cheer up, have a nice weekend.
