I'm so sorry you had a bad experience. Did you work with your vet on the problem? Miss Mini has allergies so extreme she is allergic to humans! I always find that funny, considering shes a licky lapdog! lol anyways, Mini has severe allergies and remember the serum is a desensitizing method, so like everything it takes time.

Administering the shots are super easy and our vet spent 2 hours making sure we knew exactly how to do it. We have had to adjust the serum etc., and the schedule calls for maintenance shots at 3 to 4 weeks. Didn't work with Miss Mini so we went with two weeks.

It is so worth it to us, this poor baby really suffers with allergies. It is worth every penney now and her allergies are all but a memory.

If you didn't have good luck with your vet perhaps you should see an Allergist? Maybe they could help you more? I know how difficult it is when they have allergies.
