I have a three year old female boxer, ever since she was about a year old she started itching all the time. It started out mostly in her ears, she would itch them until almost all the fur came off, my step-mom took her to the vet and they treated it like an ear infection, then the itching spread to all over her body, now she itches EVERYWHERE she scratches herself all over to the point that her fur will come out and she gets big bloody scabs, sometimes she will also get hives under her fur that you can actually see. My step mom keeps taking her to the vet and they keep saying that its just skin allergeys, we have gone to this same vet for many years with all of our past dogs and they have done a great job, however i dont think that this is just skin allergeys. We also have an older boxer (he is 6 now) who had similar problems but not this bad, and mostly with his ears, but he grew out of it by the time he was her age.
