This Poor Dog Is Miserable

Every year mark it down, Ella will get the itch!  This year it is so bad I feel really sorry for her. 

She has a new spot for itching her backside all by herself.  She gets in the middle of one of the bushes and scratches for hours.  I give her an antihistamine, use eucalyptus and peppermint essential oils.  She looks like a pot belly pig from the back.  I know with the first frost and the first snowfall she will be back to normal.
