Gypsy is 2 years old and has been on Nutro Natural choice chicken and brown rice since a puppy. We've had no issues with it, Well a couple months ago I started noticing way more shedding then normal and her skin full of bumps, red and irritated. So I figured it was fleas so I got her on her normal flea med Comfotis. But I started noticing that she kept itching then rubbing her butt on the carpet and then hair loss and flaky skin and scabs all over her. I've noticed a smell in our home and her that is yeasty and nasty and we've had to get air sprayers so our home isnt smelly, Its coming from her. I bought an allergy shampoo (veterinary formula clinical care Oatmeal and tea tree oil infuser by Synergy labs) and give her a bath once a week but it hasn't helped at all and she still smells after I shampoo her. I have noticed also that her paws seemed stained with a light reddish color like if she was diggin in red clay dirt. Her fur looks unhealthy it's oily smelly and thinning and it used to be full lush and thick and never smelly. What can this be and what should I do? I really want to have her back to normal I know shes not feeling well. I do have an appointment on Thursday with her vet but would love to hear some of your similar experiences with this.
