Go to the vet from the best vet school you can afford. Your GP should not attempt to treat allergies, you should not have a GP vet treat a specialty. See a professional so your dog is not overdrugged.
How sad and it proves again why people have to do their own research when it comes to their pets. I remember when my vet told me a survey had been done and how many vets chose this career because of the $$$$ and not because they cared about animals.
