Dr. Leigh, DVM · Accepted Answer

He could have a skin infection or an allergic dermatitis. You could bathe him with a medicated dog shampoo and see if that helps. If not, he should be examined by a vet to determine the cause and treat the problem. He may need an antibiotic, anti-histamine, and/or corticosteroid to help.
