Dear Chris
In response to information on itching, first you need to check for mites.
If you think that your gp's problem is just itchy dry skin, one of the best
things to use is Neem Oil. You can buy this in health food stores, or online.
My Rajah scratched himself on both sides of his back , and the neem oil
worked wonderfully. I bought a concentrated Neem cream, and applied it to his
back once a day. His hair is now growing back nicely, and you can feel
comfortable with it because Neem is Aloe Vera based. Nice and natural for our
piggies. The product I got in the health food store is called "Neem Aura
Naturals." A 7 ounce jar costs $16.95 in the Phoenix area. A that price it is way
cheaper than the vet! If you think your gp has mites, you should see your
vet soon. Good luck, I know other friends here at GPDD have had success with
Neem as well.
