The best way to get your pet to stop scratching themselves is to provide them with a suitable alternative activity. You can try using toys or chewable items that are made specifically for their species, such as Kongs or Nylabones. You can also give them regular baths and grooming sessions to help distract them from the itch. Additionally, you may want to consider consulting with a veterinarian if your pet’s behavior persists.
