This ain't no Nelly impersonation!




Mama put a bandaid on me because I was scratching my eyes out soo bad I EVEN HAD BLOOD COMING OUT (Jessie thinks it makes me look tough!)


Ya see I am allergic to dust and even though Mama keeps the place tidy - the furnace is on all day shooting out dust everywhere! So I scratch more than usual!


Mama has tried everything Fish oils, baths, cyclasporin, and steroids (which I have been on since I was a wee baby) but lately it has been getting worse. Mama can't wait for the warmer weather so she can open the window and I can spend more time outside!


The Pic of me in the pink t-shirt (hey no laughing - was taken last winter when I was a baby because I scratch less when I wear it).
The bandaid didn't last long - I took it off - and Mama couldn't catch me to put another t-shirt on - besides - My puppy dog sad eyes work EVERYTIME!

I have the itchies too! Mom gives me some Well Coat caplets, but that's about it. I hope you feel better soon!

Oh.. poor Jake. If you wear booties will that help in preventing you to scratch??

Owie, that sounds nasty. I'm sure it's almost impossible not to itch though. Tell mum you need lots of bones & treats as distraction!

Oh nooo! blood coming out of your eye, yucky! You must be one tough doggum. I get the itches too, but under my belly, I lick and lick and scratch till it turns real red. Nothing works...big fat bummer!

Poor Jake! Maybe your mum could buy you some googles to wear in the house when the furnace is on! I don't blame you for taking that bandaid off! I've taken of in seconds myself!

Hi Jake,
My mom says the caplets are made by Wellness. They have borage seed oil, oil of evening primrose, and flax seed oil. They might be good for itchy skin for allergies..you can give it a try!
