I just checked online to see if I could find any info for you. A pharmacist said her Yorkie was on prednisone but she knew not to continue it for a long period of time and has her dog get allergy shots. She said it took a few times to take affect but that it did work. That isn't exactly word for word but you get the gist of it. Why don't you ask your vet the pros and cons of allergy shots? A read several pieces and "hot spots" were mentioned several times. Also, are you making sure to feed kibble with no corn in it?
