hey everybody... haven't been on here in a looong time... but i had a quick question. my mom called the vet the other day because my golden, penny, seems to be itchy a lot and she thought that maybe the frontline we've been using hadn't been as effective as usual. the vet said no to my mom's thought, but asked if she'd been licking and scratching a lot (and she has) and the vet said she might have allergies so now we have an appt. on friday. my mom gave penny some benedroyl to help, is that a good idea until we get some meds (if needed) or anything else you know of? she still likes to play and it doesn't seem to be effecting her energy level... should we just hold off and see what the vet says? i don't want to be giving her unnecessary meds if it turns out to not be allergies-- just wondering what y'all think-- thanks
