Default Mozart's Itch

My Mozart has lived with the itchy allergy since he was about 4 years old. He is now 11 years old. It is also seasonal for him, but we live in Louisiana, so the summers are long. He has had the shots, but I have heard they can shorten their life span....so no more shots for him. He has been on Hydroxyzine and on Prednisone. After all of these years, I finally found a vet who just suggested Benadryl. He is 12 lbs and take a half of a tablet in the morning and at night as needed for itching. I have also limited his wheat intake. This has worked the best after all of these years. Hope this helps.
