skin infections

Does your dog go swimming in a river or lake where there are water fowl? My dog used to get skin infections every summer after swimming. It was especially bad at this time of year. The vet explained that it could be something like what people get called "swimmer's itch".
If it is an allergy to food then you may want to look for something without corn or wheat.
