1. Allergies: Dogs suffering from allergies often exhibit generalized symptoms such as rashes and intense itching. A preliminary diagnosis can be made based on these signs, and typically, medication is required for effective treatment. This may include corticosteroids, antihistamines, adrenal, and chemical antipruritics to alleviate the allergic symptoms in dogs.

2. Environmental Factors: Dogs can develop itchy symptoms due to a variety of environmental conditions, including humid, dampcold, overly dry, or fluctuating climates. During winter, dogs may experience dryness and excessive dandruff, leading to itching, which can affect their coat quality. Dogs living on concrete floors often suffer from脱毛 (hair loss), thickening and darkening of the skin, and itchy calluses on their elbows due to frequent contact with the ground.

When dogs feel itchy, clinical signs such as scratching may be observed. Fleas can cause itching by crawling over the skin, but the itching is actually a result of an allergic reaction to the flea bite. This allergic reaction is commonly found on areas like the back and base of the tail, and can lead to selfmutilation, hair loss, exudative dermatitis, and hyperpigmentation.

Substances like grass mats, sawdust, and other bedding materials can directly irritate a dog's skin and may also cause itching due to pollutants, bacteria, and parasites present on them. Once these causative factors are eliminated, a dog's itchy symptoms should significantly improve.

3. Diet Factors: Research indicates that a deficiency in essential fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals in a dog's diet can lead to varying degrees of itching.

4. Neurological Factors: These are primarily related to central nervous system disorders, such as rabies.

5. Generalized itching can be a symptom of various internal diseases, including jaundice, tumors, diabetes, and uremia. Skin spots and itching can also be associated with conditions like cell tumors and lymphocytic tumors. The migration of internal parasites to the skin can also cause itching.
