Im sure it depends on the vet and the lab, but my vet quoted me about $200 for an allergy test for my older cat. I haven't had it done though because we're trying a new food and I think it's helping. I think what they do is take a skin sample and possibly a blood sample and send it off to the lab to be tested against about 100 common antigens and then you'll get a report back that says what your dog is allergic to.
