Trust the vets: it's better when they run diagnostics test than when they ALWAYS say "it's an allergy" to everything & give meds blindly.
I tell you this because I'm going through similar case currently. My dog got itchy, hair loss on his hind legs, hypermentation, and little tiny numbs on the bald areas. His vet believes its a dermatitis caused by n allergy to SOMETHING. Antibiotic, anti-itching med, & a spray were prescribed. But I'm very frustrated because as he suffers everything seems like an experiment :(
Good luck |
