@eeeefarm there’s no hair loss thankfully. I’ve been logging her actions and monitoring her as closely as I can. I stopped the treats and she hasn’t been scratching vigorously thank goodness!

@jengosmonkey thank you! I’ll definitely try that. When puppies teeth they usually scratch their mouths that hard? I was so worried when she started bleeding

Hello all. I’m new here and a first time basenji owner. My 13 week old pup Penny has recently been scratching vigorously especially by her left eye and mouth. She also has been biting herself more than usual over the last two days. I’m worried because she ended up scratching her mouth vigorously tonight which caused bleeding and I don’t want her to get worse. I haven’t changed her dog food (Merrick puppy food provided by our breeder) but I started using raw reward freeze dried chicken breast treats this past Friday. I’m going to stop the raw reward treats and monitor her scratching.. have any of your basenjis scratched vigorously or dealt with excessive biting when they were this age?
