Dogs biting themselves can be a sign of various issues, ranging from simple skin irritations to more serious conditions like allergies or infections.
It's important to pay attention to the frequency and location of the biting, as it can help determine the cause.
A visit to the vet is always recommended to diagnose the problem, which may involve physical exams, tests, and even medication.
Prevention involves sticking to the vet's treatment plan, using distractions to discourage biting, and potentially employing an e-collar to protect healing skin.
