Are you doing flea protection?

Yes, it is temaril something. No, nothing had changed, she just got progressively more itchy. She is 14 months. She is on Frontline. No fleas, yeast infections or ear mites. Liz thinks we should just have to do this one treatment and she should be okay. I have also started adding salmon oil to her morning breakfast and went back to a stinky hypo allergenic shampoo that didn't make her itch before. We aren't going to do this long term, but may need to do one round yearly around this time...

So far (since last wed) she is doing much better, She scratches occasionally, but not constantly. The allergies were also affeecting her ability to breathe. She could walk for more than five minutes without getting ready to pass out. Now she is running and playing again.
