Dog Allergies Treatment

My dog cody has been in and out of vets for 4 months now. 4 months ago he got a rash around his mouth and eyes that produce clusters of huge red bumps that burst and bleed, on there own and with his itching.. He has been diagnosed with , dog acne, allergies, folliculitus. He was on Cephalexin 500 mg and it went away but the day the pills were over it came back. Vet tells us to wash his face with a warm compress and wash with benzoyl peroxide all his does is bust his huge bumps faster! He has been stripped of all dog food execpt holistc food and treats, changed everything we use in the house to allergie free products! Nothing seems to help and we have never got a clear answer about what this is. After reading some stuff online i’m wondering if Cody has an immunity problem. Looking for any help to fix Cody!
Thank You

My neighbor has a 14 week old female american pit bull terrier puppy that pees and poops all over her house and poops in her crate.
Please read ALL the info before responding.
Her crate is a small crate typically used for a cat so that there is not extra room for her to poop and she still does.
She will NOT yet walk on her leash,she stubbornly sits there and would rather be dragged than walked.Trust me I tried to help my neighbor with this to no avail.So walking her before bed to get things moving right now is not going to work.
She eats at 4pm and has nothing later than that.
She puts the pup in the yard for an hour to two before bed.
As far as discipline,I take the puppy once or twice a week and when she does pee or poop I shout a firm no and place her in the yard immediately.
Do you think that she may have a behavior problem?
I was thinking that she may have a food allergy that is causing her to have these issues(it is not always diarrhea,sometimes it’s hard) my neighbor feeds her Pedigree dog food,I know that she should be on puppy food but my neighbor does not want to buy 2 foods for her 2 dogs.
Please don’t be rude for it is not my dog and there is nothing I can do as far as forcing my neighbor to change her food.
She says that she brought her to the vet and they said that she’s fine.
Another thing,whether she’s at her owner’s house or visiting my home,there is another dog who you would think she would follow the lead from or learn from and she still does not.
I never said anything about the breed of my neighbor’s other dog or my dog.
The breeds have no baring on the situation.

I have a 2 year old Golden Retriever who constantly itches his stomach and hind end. On the tip of his tail it feels like scabs all over… On his belly he has red spots all over his belly. I’m not sure if it could be a food allergy (he gets Iams dog food) or something else…. He’s had it for a month or so but we just switched his food in august…. does any body know??

I discovered about four days ago that my dogs had Mange. We first treated our dogs for skin allergies in October which my vet said to do so after my Maltese began to loose his fur after months of practically no improvements I decided to get a second opinion. My first vet said it was DEFIANTLY NOT MANGE :S but I asked for a skin scrape from a different vet and the diagnosis was confirmed. The vet found two mites on the one slide on the first go! I was furious that I hadn’t been treating my dogs properly if I started this back in October my Maltese would have lost ALL HIS FUR! I even asked queations on Y/A. Anway now I am on a strict treatment plan I have resorted to this other vet. He gave me a wash ‘Dermadex’ I think its called and I have changed from Advantage to Advocate which controls mange also. I am treating my 4 dogs. which live at home with us. I wanted to know what I can do to treat their environments my dogs sleep anywhere they like and do not have certain sleeping quarters. Will they get the mites while I am treating them from their environment? I just want to get over this I want everything back to normal. I got my three other dogs shaved including my pom! Her fur is so beautiful I take really good care of it and this whole situation has resulted in her getting it shaved off just in case she gets it. I want to know how long treatment will take. I am washing/dipping them once a week and advocate treating them every two weeks. Also will my cats get it, they aren’t itching or anything, they don’t sleep with the dogs but they do walk around the yard where the dogs have been :S. Also I have bunnies, they are not in contact with my dogs at all so will they get it?
I am so paranoid I have cleaned out the whole house washing everything! When will the mites on my dogs be totally gone? After the first wash? I just need reassurance its all going to pass.
Has anyone experienced this before????
Thanks and I will appreciate any answers insight!!!
SORRY FOR THE AMOUNT OF WORDS :S

Yesterday [Friday] I remember my back itching occasionally, but nothing big. Today [Saturday] I woke up and I realized I had a LOT of red bumps on my thighs. When I went to go take a shower, I noticed that I had bumps not only on my thighs, but on my stomach, chest, and [as I had expected because of Friday] back as well. There’s none of my face, and there’s very little on my arms. It’s all now really itchy.
Some areas of my body just have scattered red bumps, but other parts have patches of them.
I’ve just washed my sheets recently, so i don’t see how a bug could have started it but we’re washing them again just in case. I’m not sexually active, I’m not allergic to anything (not that I’m aware of. I have spring allergies, but it’s never made my skin break out…). I DO have dogs and cats, but none have fleas, tics, etc. If they did, I wouldn’t be the only one effected by this.
Does anyone know what the bumps might be? IS it bites from a bug? Do you think I need to see a doctor or just wait it out a bit?
