You can test for environmental allergies at least the testing is somewhat more reliable. My dog has environmental allergies in addition to a whole long list of other issues and has done excellently on atopica and most recently no medication and just a special diet.

Good luck keep us posted
Thank you, good to know! Is the test for environmental allergies worth it too, if they're just going to tell me that she's allergic to pollen and grass, and things like that? I've heard of atopica, I'll ask my vet if it will help. Can I ask what kind of special diet you put her on?
