And here is another tip, check the food. I have a Yellow Labrador and she started itched five years ago, dragged her to the Vet who started steroid treatment. It worked and then it came back. Then I was told that as Labradors age, they cannot process protein in their food, so it builds up in the system causes itching. I changed to the lowest protein food I could fine and we are still going strong at 13 years of age. Also check the claw up the leg and see if this needs cutting as they have a habit of washing their faces and this claw scratches their eye.
