My dog has skin problems. It’s not mites or allergies or fungal. What else could it be?

skin problems
aznqtpiebaby asked:


He is a 6Yr old Jack Russell who has had skin problems his whole life but it was always pretty controllable with hydroxyzine and vitamin e supplements that the vet gave me until last yr when it stopped working. He has been on hypoallergenic food and shampoo for years. I’ve given him zyrtec, benadryl, and also tried a natural diet and nothing has worked. He has had a fungal, allergy , and mite test all negative
test, a skin test for mites, and an allergy test and everything has come back negative for all allergents. He has red dots on his belly and red marks all over his back and 2 bald spots from where he chewed out his hair. His skin is flaky on his back and he chews his paws too. If anyone has any suggestions as to what it could be, i’d greatly appreciate it.
