| I'm glad you got her to the vet and figured out what was going on. It sounds like she should be feeling better soon!

| So glad that you found a good vet. Skin issues and allergies are so hard to figure out...

| I've been watching to see if you posted something on your visit to the U of I. I have taken another dog there and loved everyone I dealt with. So glad you now can get her on a routine and give her some possible relief.

YT 500 Club Member | Oh I forgot to mention they told me to stop giving her fish oil as it has protein in it that could be adding to the problem but said coconut oil was fine, as a matter of fact the new shampoo they had me get contains coconut oil in it |
