Westie with itchy skin

itchy westie - west highland terrier

This is Sam, a 13 month old west highland terrier bitch. From 10 weeks old she began to chew at herself & scratch constantly.

When about 13 weeks old she was diagnosed with craniomandibular osteopathy (Lion's Jaw) & was treated with steroids until about nine months old. During this time no more scratching as the steroids would have suppressed any allergies.

As soon as she came off the steroids the chewing and scratching began again. Her legs were almost bald, her coat was in poor condition and she was very uncomfortable.

Her owner James, came across Bionic Biotic and was delighted with the results.
