I may look into other foods for her as well - thanks for mentioning that. We will do anything to make our girl comfortable :)Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13472380420098293922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2231574304827782968.post-54224268672128328462013-08-07T19:40:04.383-04:002013-08-07T19:40:04.383-04:00Scout's allergies manifest via skin irritation...Scout's allergies manifest via skin irritation--when he has a flare-up, he scratches himself raw. Poor guy. He is about 5 yrs old now and I can remember first noticing them when he was about a year old maybe ...hard to remember because we have been battling them for so long now! He has also had some bowel issues (not very common for him) that the vet thinks were also due to the allergies. I feed him a venison and potato kibble now and bathe him once every week or so with a medicated shampoo (in addition to the meds). He is high maintenance! But he is a sweetie, so I am happy to take care of him :)Caseyhttp://www.caseydsibley.etsy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2231574304827782968.post-71126275845712488612013-08-07T13:12:34.606-04:002013-08-07T13:12:34.606-04:00Thank you all for the kind words!

I've got Mocha hooked up to the laundry line with a harness and carabiner so she can wander while I work outside without being able to take off. <br /><br />Casey -- I'd be curious to know what kind of symptoms your dog has from allergies and at what age you noticed them start.<br /><br />Thanks all!Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13472380420098293922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2231574304827782968.post-62419698778413506122013-08-07T12:55:08.097-04:002013-08-07T12:55:08.097-04:00oh yuck!

I am so sorry you have to go through this. <br />If you end up having to put a cone on Fern, I have had good luck with these, and they last for years:<br />http://www.allfourpaws.com/<br />Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15479654935784540224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2231574304827782968.post-55449201394308932262013-08-07T09:59:54.277-04:002013-08-07T09:59:54.277-04:00I hope your pups feel better soon!I hope your pups feel better soon!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04796515624972095567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2231574304827782968.post-90784067158265017672013-08-07T09:59:28.789-04:002013-08-07T09:59:28.789-04:00It's so hard when the pups are hurting!

I have to keep him on steroids (and antibiotics when his allergies flare up). While it keeps him comfy, I always worry about long term side effects. It breaks my heart, too. Your dogs are obviously in great hands. Lucky for them, they found a human willing to love them and take care of them.<br /><br />p.s. love your shop :)Caseyhttp://www.caseydsibley.etsy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2231574304827782968.post-88005001444794111142013-08-07T09:50:30.880-04:002013-08-07T09:50:30.880-04:00sweets, i feel for you, i really do. dog problems ...sweets, i feel for you, i really do. dog problems eat at you inside since they can't really tell you what's going on. stay calm and relaxed 'cause i swear they read your emotions, and know you'll get through it. xo.oh, albatrosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01722178780420244892noreply@blogger.com
