My boxer dog, Elsie, suffers from severe allergies. Three years ago her health started to deteriorate. She had itchy paws (which she always chewed on), bleeding ears, itchy skin, hair loss, weight loss and many other health issues. My family struggled with expensive medications, treatments and vet visits. At one point, we were spending over $2,000 a year.
Through trial and error, we finally found the right combination of food (Natural Balance Sweet Potato & Venison) and treatment (allergy shots, indoor allergen control, etc.) to improve her quality of life - and save our checkbook.
I'd love to meet others who have allergy dogs. What experiences have you gone through with dog allergies? What solutions work/don't work for you?
P.S. Since I know Elsie isn't alone, I’ve decided to write a book on dog allergies. You'll see mention of a study I'm doing in my signature.
