Answer
Hi Chris and Hobo!  Here is my answer to your boy's itching and hair loss:
Give it a try : you should see results in 2-3 weeks.  

1.  Change this boy's food to a grain free food:
slowly go off the Current Food and choose one of the following  grain free foods:

Innova EVO, Wellness Core, Merrick BEFORE GRAIN (ocean seafood); or the Canadie grain free-  also, Solid gold may have a grain-free,too.....

If you can't find any of the ones I suggested, let me know- I have more:
Do a 50:50 mix of the OLD and the NEW food for at least 3 weeks.  After that, you can go 100% to the new grain free feeding.


2.   I would like to see if you can find some PURE salmon oil - give your dog 2 tablespoons per day - just mix into the food.
Must be PURE salmon oil....WE like the Grizzley Brand****


3.  NUVET Plus Supplements*** ( take away the itchies**)

This is a skin/ coat healer and Immune System blaster.  WE need to re-build your dog's immune system to fight off the environmental allergies and food allergies.
NuVET helps to Heal and Prevent ear infections - also reduces swelling and discomfort.
