Why does my dog keep pawing at her face?
My dog (an 11 year old Boxer) keeps pawing at her face. She will paw at it a few times and then go on her back and wiggle her back and head around on the carpet. I’ve noticed she does it more at night time. I can tell something is bothering her but I’m just trying to pinpoint what it is exactly based on her behavior. Last time I took her to the vet (not related to the face-pawing) the vet said that she has allergies so maybe that could be it? She also has had an abcess in her mouth (which was removed) as well as an ulcer in her eye (which has healed and scarred over). Does anyone else have any ideas?
