So, there's no miraculous over-night change-no problem with that-but I'm feeling like we're going in the right direction.
Good Luck cobird2!!! I hope it works out well but if it's airborne it may be a temporary fix. We have tried SOOO many things and with each vet I was hopeful for a cure and here we are almost 5 months later still itchy..
The one good thing is at least( no food allergies) he can have special treats to make him happy during his miserable time..
I wish you both luck and I hope there will be one less itchy do on yorkietalk
