- if you are going to be serious about the food, you have to be diligent about eliminating items and reintroducing one at a time - and NO SNACKS!

For dogs with food allergy, generally how fast do you see a reaction to the food? Hours? Days?

Once I decided it would be a good idea to use the cat version on Bo and within minutes, his fur fell out. In clumps. I then started watching the dogs after applying it and either they were trying to scratch the line down their backs or they had little bumps on the skin.
Are your fleas/ticks real bad there? Maybe you can use Nupro, like I do, or some other natural product to keep fleas away.
