Lets Go Red Sox!

Doggie is bitting himself and leaving skin raw.

I have an appointment to go to the vet, but in the meantime , does anyone have experience with a dog biting or nibbling their own fur off which leaves bald spots?  WHy would a dog do this? is there anything you can do for the dog to get him to stop?

Flea dirt, Mites or a number of things could be  causing him to itch! Dogs will scratch until they bleed!Until his appointment you should give him a couple of baths in some good shampoo that says for sarcoptic mange even if its not!
