| Jackson had a short period of time last year where he got super itchy. Vet gave us Apoqquel and it was AWESOME - worked wonders! He only needed it for about a week.

| Max is on it now. It took a few weeks to clear up his skin issues and he's now doing and feeling great again. No side effects for him at all.

| Anna took it for about a month and had great outcomes. She had scratched herself bald in places. Within a week, the itching was completely gone, not even any biting at her feet. Vet assured me she could take it year round if needed, but it appears her allergies are seasonal. I didn't notice any side effects when she was on it.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Apoquel is just amazing as is a similar drug for allergies, Atopica.

| Bella is on it as well. She rubs her face and has lost a lot of her topknot. It helps put not completely my Vet has added reaction as well but we still have breakthrough times I wish it had worked as well for us. |
