If a dog is itching, it may be Allergies, but always use a flea treatment (from your vets, to be sure if works) to rule out fleas first. Next you need to make sure there are no substances in the house the dog is allergic to - switch to hypoallergenic cleaners/washing powders and see if the itching improves. If this doesn't help, try a food trial - the best food from this is from your vets, but you can try lean chicken and rice, or a hypoallergenic dog food (as long as the dog isn't allergic to the ingredients in the food! Trial and error can take a while). If these don't work, you neecd to talk to your vet.
Remember, if the dog has broken skin, hair loss or redness of the skin you should always take them to see the vet first. Even if you get rid of what the dog is allergic to, once the 'itch-scratch' cycle is in place (or the skin is infected), they will never get any better without veterinary intervention.
Treatment for allergies is life-long and can be very expensive; make sure your dog is insured with a 'life-long' policy!
Itch cream, (from the Vet) or a shot. (vet)
Give your dog allergy medicine prescribed from its vet.
If you know what the dog is allergic to, try to eliminate it from your dog's environment.

You would use dog nappies when your dog suffers from incontinence, or when the dog is young, and does not know not to urinate/defecate inside the house.
Allergies will cause this. My dog has the same problem. You can call your dog's vet and ask him/her what the best cream would be to use on the dog. I would recommend using some Vaseline to sooth the itching.
No. You should not use acetaminophen or ibuprofen on a dog. Aspirin is safe for dogs. You should ask your veterinarian for the correct dosage.
no we cannot use them.
At some point or another, many people experience the pain and discomfort of allergies. There is the runny nose, sneezing, itching, trouble breathing, or other problems that allergies can cause. What most people do not understand is that dogs can have these kinds of allergic reactions just like humans can. This article will discuss dog allergy treatment and will provide some possible solutions to the problems dogs can have due to allergic reactions. Most dog allergies are inhalant allergies, meaning that they are caused by the body’s adverse reaction to something the dog breathes in. These can include dust, mold, and pollen, among other things. One of the simplest solutions to these types of allergies is avoidance. Keeping the dog away from the things it is allergic to will help eliminate allergic reactions and discomfort. For example, if your dog is allergic to dust, try to keep them in a separate room while cleaning your house so that they do not breathe in the dust created while cleaning. Another dog allergy treatment is the use of antihistamines. Based on the kinds of allergies your dog has, it is best to contact a veterinarian before giving your dog antihistamines. However, just like humans, the use of medications such as these are not always entirely effective at eliminating symptoms, and you may have to try a couple of different antihistamines until you find the right match for your dog. Many dogs also have sensitive skin that can lead to itching or irritation because of allergic reactions. Another dog allergy treatment for this kind of allergy is simply a cream or gel application that reduces the urge to scratch. This is similar to creams that humans use to stop the urge to scratch a bug bite or a rash. If your dog spends a lot of time outside, sometimes they just need to be treated with flea medications before the itching will stop. Other times, it is a more serious skin issue that may require special foods or shampoos that help keep the skin moist and healthy.
Oxydex Shampoo can be used for your dog's allergies. A good site to get additional information is dogtime.com/allergies-aaha.html.

He might have fleas. Try a flea collar. UPDATE: Flea collars don't always work. Use Frontline or Advantix, you get them from your veterinarian. They might also have hot spots or just plain allergies too. Check with your vet!
It is common in dogs and referred to as hot spots. You should keep it clean. You can bath the area with a mild detergent or baby shampoo, and pat dry. Try to keep the dog from scratching or biting it (good luck). You can use hydrocortisone spray to stop the itching. Benadryl tablets can also stop the itch. We have always used Benadryl, but you should check with your Vet first.
Treatment plans vary depending on the allergy, but they usually involve medication, managing the environment to remove the allergen, or both. Not every dog will need all these measures, so talk with your vet once you know what your dog is allergic to. http://dogtime.com/allergies-dog.html
