I have allergies!

Charlie on Health - Mon, July 14 2008

Guess what guys! Mommy took me to the vet this morning cauze I was shaking my head a little bit as if my ears were bugging me (I started doing that on Friday) plus I keep licking my paws...and we found out that I have allergies! I have to take a pill for about 4-5 weeks but that's ok because it means I get CHEESE! Oh YEAH. I can't 'member what the pill is called but I think it's cortisol or something. I hope it stops the itchies!

mom just gave me Benadryl before she left for work. i've been a little itchy and I actually scratched out part of my pretty flaggy tail.Mom's thinking about switching me to a grain free food as well but hasn't decided yet. Good luck with the cheese. I had peanut butter on mine!

Dude, allergies suck! We're all a bunch of itchy, scratchy dogs in the spring/summer around here.

'Tis my itchy season, too. Having peaunt butter and cheese to get the pills down is a bonus though!

My allergies have been acting up too. Mom's been slipping Benadryl into my food. I have to get shots for my alleriges, and you get cheese! My mom needs to rethink our allergy strategy! I hope you feel better soon, Charlie. It's no fun being itchy!

Allegies stink but since Atopica entered my life, I have been ITCH free. Warning, that free cheese & peanut butter only goes so far before you start to learn that your cheese is chunky... I up the anty to Cream Cheese sometimes (or frosting shhhhh... it works on really bad days)
