It could be an allergy to the food, an enviorenmental allergen, or stress. It could be a bad habit. First have the Vet Check out the skin for mites or other enviornmental causes. Bitter apple may help if it is mites or just a bad habit, oil may help if the problem is just a dry skin. It could also be a mild staph infection of the skin in which case the dog may need a topical or systemic antibiotic. If you can't be a Good Example,then You'll just have to Serve as a Horrible Warning. Catherine Aird.
