I'm still concerned about what she is allergic to so we can eliminate it, vet recommended going to a doggie dermotologist to have a full panel allergy test done??? Has anyone done this??? |
yep had two done at $400 a pop from two different labs and she has a ton of environmental allergies -- it only determines environmental but unless you plan on doing hyposensitization shots it really is a waste of money. First step for allergies is to first rule out food allergy though and mites so if vet ruled out mites then it still could be food unless you did a 12 week elimination diet with a novel protein and carb
