Problems that recur are likely due to contact with a specific allergen or a type of food. In this case, you must try one thng at a time. Keep the dog on a specialised diet that is proven to be low in ingredients that can cause a reaction. After several months of this, if the problem recurs it is likely to be environmental. Certain plants can trigger such a reaction, as can other common household items such as certain cleaners, carpets or other floor surfaces.
