I hope your pup feels better
Oh wow, didn't realize that this newer med was now available in the US. Cool!

Did your vet mention whether or not he's seeing good results yet w/ the newer drug? What was the price of the Apoquel vs Atopica, did he say? That would be interesting to know since Atopica def is not cheap.
