We had a Sheltie that was allergic to human dander, a variety of trees and molds and dust mites, and it never caused a problem until he was 8! Our vet used Liquid Gold tests by http://www.varlallergy.com/ (this was back in 1999). It made a huge difference in how he felt. His hair grew back (yep, a bald Sheltie), he stopped being itchy and was so much better. It starts off with frequent shots but tapers down to once a month or so. It's miracle worker!Lynn Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835378506430259731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-84728637217850373212012-11-05T16:54:28.203-06:002012-11-05T16:54:28.203-06:00I like Cranky Roz, and completely understand how C...I like Cranky Roz, and completely understand how Canadians could be as sick of this whole election as we are!Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890227462052573887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-87307750108610372532012-11-05T13:38:03.689-06:002012-11-05T13:38:03.689-06:00What a fun post, when it generates such fun commen...What a fun post, when it generates such fun comments.

We don't care who you vote in (well, we kinda do 'cause the outcome will absolutely affect all kinds of exports, cross border relations and our general day to day economy) but GEEEZ....get on with it. :)<br />OOH..that made Cranky Roz make an appearance. She's not as fun as Cranky Shelley though! Cranky Roz agrees with you about the holiday music and commercials too. That makes me want to go and kick some Santa's ass. HA! Kidding. sort of!

Pixie goes insane for flaxseed caps (I cannot abide fish oil) - they are not for her, but if we set the vitamins on the counter and turn our backs, she runs off with the gel caps. <br /><br />Only 2 more days to stop hearing election coverage! I visited a swing state (WI) during the 2000 election season and it was hell on earth being there. I cannot imagine that level daily without going completely insane. Everyone needs to just shut up and keep your opinions to yourself for the next couple days (or forever, I'm okay with that, too).Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09781375451012608773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-62931810790738563952012-11-05T10:18:22.940-06:002012-11-05T10:18:22.940-06:00Connecticut has a $5 store?

I might get some for Sophie. When I was giving Monk glucosamine, I just cut off a piece of string cheese, pushed the pill in the middle and he ate it!

Feeling your pain - especially with the dog. Our oldest gets allergies pretty often and we give Benadryl - like you - but our vet said 1 pill for every 25 lbs twice a day so we gave him 3 pills with each meal. This only worked well if we started it at the first signs of itching and chewing. Once it got so bad he needed steroid shots because he had chewed down to his skin in spots. And I completely agree with the FB idea - if I wanted to know your politics, I'd ask. I live in Chunkymonkeymama land where the 1st amendment is at my discretion - take it or leave it!Gigihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05117083150374231978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-30852588664415235182012-11-05T09:37:53.681-06:002012-11-05T09:37:53.681-06:00If this were Facebook, I'd "like" yo...If this were Facebook, I'd "like" your comment. ;)Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890227462052573887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-21958613948854963482012-11-05T09:37:05.041-06:002012-11-05T09:37:05.041-06:00There's a cool front coming in...the day AFTER...There's a cool front coming in...the day AFTER the race.
