I just wanted to second Nootka on the possibility of allergies. I had a big horse Appy that used to rub her tail raw at a certain time each year, and she eventually started rubbing her mane too. I bought some Histacalm shampoo from my vet and I gave her weekly baths with it during the time that she was itchy and it stopped the itching and rubbing. Once I realized the pattern, I got proactive and would start the baths before I saw her begin to rub. After a couple of years, she quit doing it.
