I keep trying to think of something that would cause the exact same reaction in two different animals. Have any vines in the yard? Poison ivy...poison oak? Even if you think you do not...it's a possiblity if they were outside somewhere together. I don't see it in my yard either, but sometimes doing yardwork...my husband manages to find the one vine.

I don't think both would have the identical reaction to the oak tree string things. We have those....I hate them.

We used to advise benadryl and oatmeal baths as a treatment when it was impossible to determine the cause. The oatmeal bath is exactly what it sounds like....warm water with uncooked oatmeal in it. I don't know how effective it would be for a yorkie...and can't imagine the "fun" it would be to comb out her hair.

I really think hers are just taking longer to go away completely.
I hope it is just taking longer and im not rexposing her to it ....there is just nothing new besides those 2 things! Im picky about cleaners I never switch...and i realize they can develop new allergies at any time but what are the odds of 2 developing a new allergy the same day??? Just does not make sense to me. Poison Ivy is a possibility...i dont see any but i know it can be tricky. Yeah maybe with smmer coming they treated the fleece with a bug spray ??? I know bugs love to burrow in fabric....Im hoping these pills i pick up today clear things up and i never see hives on her again!!!!!
