Thanks for commenting on the licks product, I'll go return it at the pet store.

I was just so wary of giving her so much medicine. I love that this site is available to be able to get comfort with other yorkie owners and get advice from them.

I have thought of cushings disease previously and vet said it could be a potential but have not done thorough testing. I looked up the symptoms and she also has a pot belly look to her. I really hope its not the case. I'll get some testing done.
Apoquel is a miracle, so is Atopica - approach them that way rather than with fear...they could change your kiddo's life .

If thinking Cushings (my Wylie has had it for 8 yrs now), the first test is the Cortisol-Creatinine Ratio Urine Test.
