My dog has a hot spot on the lower right side of her neck? How I can stop her from scratching it when a cone won’t cover it and I can’t bandage it?

I would recommend uploading a picture and submitting another question. I would talk to your veterinarian if they can give Roxy to stop the itching and make her more comfortable. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
