The shots, are not medication. Allergen Specific Immunotherapy (desensitization) is the most natural way to treat environmental allergies. It is now available sublingual (by mouth) if you are squeamish about shots.
There is no cure for allergies. However there is treatment, it tends to be lifelong.
Avoidance does not work, it’s impossible. for example, the common house dust mite (common allergen) is around all year round and on the skin of all living things.
For all you know, your dog’s allergies may be mild/seasonal and receptive to medications certain times of the year.
Intradermal skin testing done by a dermatologist is the most accurate way to identify environmental allergens.
I skipped the blood test on the advice of the dermatologist (treatment specific to my dog)
