Unfortunately, many dogs have no choice. The other options out there are even worse, and not doing anything really hinders the quality of life.

I know mine would scratch himself bloody. Even after allergy testing and being on immunotherapy for about 9 months this season is really hard on him.
I put him on Apoquel, the itching stopped and he’s a very happy boy.

My other one has seasonal allergies so he’s on it right now too. For him it will be temporary and I plan on taking him off in less than a month.

Ask your vet about the other options. Prednisone and Atopica are even worse.
