They may love Latte, but they just charged you for unreliable IgE assays for food allergy testing. Just saying.... Your $142 to walk in the door to a vet derm would be a great investment into Latte. The only way to diagnose a food allergy in a dog is by an elimination diet. It sounds like you did that -- so your dog likely has enviornmental allergies and might respond to Atopica. You have to do what you feel is right for your dog - but many of us have been in your shoes......we've been in for a penny in for a pound with our regular vets only to have specialists nip the problem in the bud.
Good luck with Latte.
