You gave me nothing else to go on, so I would say, give her a nice warm bath with a good dog shampoo and conditioner as well. Look for any sign of fleas or ticks while bathing her. I am assuming you know she has no fleas, so the next step would be to take her to the vet if she continues scratching. Some dogs develop skin conditions that need treatment from the vet. Good luck to you and your precious puppy

maybe your puppy has flees you will need to buy some flee powder from a pet shop or buy a flee collar if she keeps scraching after that then maybe she has some thing wrong with her so maybe you should then take her to the vet to get her checked up. If she is biting herself aswell then my dog had to get a big head thing to stop her biting herself because she had flees and she was scratching alot aswell as your dog is doing.otherwise there is only one other possibility she might have worms so you might have to buy a worm tablet thing from a pet shop i hope this has helped ya c ya

There are a couple of different reasons why this is. One may be that she has fleas. It is easy to tell if she does by looking closly at her skin and if you see black bugs. Another thing is she could have a skin problem. A really good medicine for fleas is Frontline plus. Thats what I use for my dogs and it works like a charm!! Good Luck!!

could be fleas, maybe dry skin (is your house too dry indoors?), if you use soap when you wash her she could be alergic or maybe the soap isn't washed off good enough, or she might be alergic to the "frontline". Depends too on where she's scratching as it could be a tooth problem, ear mites, or if she's a long haired dog maybe a strand of hair got stuck in her ear, etc.

She may have dry skin give her a bath in oatmeal.
Does she have fleas?
Or she may have allergies.
Try telling your Vet about the problem next time you
take her in for a check up.

It's probably ticks. That's what my dog did when she had ticks.
