History

Last 3 months of 2025, Hustle was on 100% Barf as she had reflux previously when fed any kibble. Xmas 2025 I introduced PetnPro kibble as I could not get her to maintain a good weight.... she was at least 1- 1.5 kgs too light. She was looking the best she has in years by End of January, she was on 50% PetnPro with barf. March she was in season 8th to 30th. Around the 23rd March I realised she has some rash on her belly, groin area. It was red, crusty circular lesions, and was itchy. Vet 15th April (Animal Wellness) Many different causes possible, including hormonal. The kibble was stopped at 1st April. Barf continued 100% of diet. Xiao Feng San started after vet visit, along with herbal cream and weekly washes in oatmeal shampoo and conditioner. Seemed to improve for a week, but by day 6 after wash she was very uncomfortable again. The rash cleared from belly and groin and was then along the spine and tail from the mid lumbar area. Once that began to clear, it started on her sides and flank....now it is neck underarms and forward half nipples. It is very red and some scabs and crustiness to start, then the red goes and there are dry flakey roundish scabs all over the area. Currently she seems the worst, there is lots of redness of the skin, chest and neck area.... some of her nipples have lesions around them, and there is some swelling, almost as if she's having a phantom pregnancy. The lesions are appearing as red round areas with the hair thinning and and coming away. I didn't continue with the herbs once they were finished, as she had reflux with it and she has dropped down to 14kgs. I am losing the battle for her atm, she is wearing shirts during the day to stop her scratching and I am using tissue salts to contract the itch..... it all helps but her skin is still deteriorating. I have stopped all chicken as well, doesn't seem to have helped, and she is still too underweight.
