And now she gets a daily allergy shot every night before bed... Thats how bad the allergies are... I suggest you get it done...
well i questioned that route also but all 3 vets i have seen said not likey a environmental thing being i have 2 yorkies reacting the same exact way within 24 hours. They said seasonal allergies in 2 different dogs would react differently....and likey at different times. I use no yard chemicals and have no new plants they are around. They also said environmental allergies act a lil differently as both my dogs have hives in their pits of knees and arms...which she said is classic contact allergy reaction. So yes, i am pursuing all avenues but 3 different vets are steering me away from seasonal. If i dont get this under control soon i will definately pursuit environmental.
