My dog Benji is a border collie. when he was a pup the vet thought he might have a mite so we dipped him. the dip helped and then the doctor said that since it worked so quickly it may have just been dry skin, and the dip soothed it. well he has been itching lately (he is now about 3 years old) horribly. we tried bathing him with a special shampoo, and we have been giving him allergy medicine. but nothing is helping.. his skin is flakey and really red and blotchy. he scratches it so often, and cries when he scratches it... i think its starting to hurt him... and i cant figure it out. the vet is blowing it off. *but the vet for the small town i live in is not a very nice man and just ignores the animals problems basically* it really worries me, and I want to help my little baby. also we have another dog (a pit bull) and she doesnt have this problem at all. please help
