    Dear stressed Staffie owner
    The mum of my pack rips the fur from her legs down to the skin and has been doing so for at least the last four years and we have been through everything from advocate lung worm treatment every other week for 6 weeks twice from two different vets. The pink antiseptic wash twice a week for the same time frame and then on top of this 5mg of steroids twice a day every day and it still happens and I have come to the same conclusion as you it’s something to do with the seasons and pollen as it definitely gets worse in spring and then after the od of medication its controlled and then it’s autumn and it dies down until the next year I thought it might be my over protective imagination but if you do find a less medicinal option I would love to here as I hate pushing pills down there throat for everything when there is normally a less poisonous natural remedy but I just can’t speak staff well enough yet but I will I Garuntee you that.
