Hi my dog Gizmo is a terrier mix...he will only eat his food if I add chicken or beef to it. I do not season his meat just oven roast it...the problem is I notice he is scratching a lot...by the way i feed him pedigree and it too has chicken. What can I do.

Poor gizmo! There are many possible reasons for scratching including food sensitivities, environmental allergies and parasites or infections. A full check up and allergy blood tests would be recommended, a hydrolyzed diet trial with royal canin anallergenic would be required to investigate fully any food related issues if no other causes are found
