Hi everyone,
My idx has been quite itchy lately. I didn't think too much of it at first, as they all like a good scratch now and again but he's been making himself bleed. It's across his flanks and sides mainly but he has got a cut on his chest. His tail is a bit rubbed out but his mane is fine as I also thought of sweetitch. I'v looked at his coat and can't see any mites etc but have never had any experience with them, so would you see the mites or are they too small? He is due to be wormed. I'v got some equimax gel on order. Does anyone know what kind of worms can have this itchy effect? Is it pinworm? He hasn't lost weight (unfortunately!) either. Will probably get the vet out but just wondered if anyone had any ideas or had come across this first! Thankyou
