Just FYI I had him on Apoquel and he has always been very red, swelling and bumps like hives almost, when he was on it, everything cleared up and no drowseyness or ill side effects were present. How ever I would def love to get to the bottom of it and find out where the real problem is. I just don’t feel if the real problems are going to require he be on even more drugs, I would rather stick to the one that I know works for my pet and not have him hopped up on a bunch of things.

Thanks for the tips! I would never give my dog something with out vet approval, just too risky. I was told give him bennedryl and it did nothing, vet switched him to zyrtek and same thing, he had no responsiveness to either. Still itching like a mad man, and I have him on a very specific diet. The vet said the next step is a steroid how ever I am hesitant on that. I am heavily thinking about seeing a dermatologist I am pretty sure it’s a dermatitis mixed with seasonal alergies.He is a white blue nose pit 80 lbs. And only a year old. It seems white blue nose pits are hyper sensitive to alot

I have a 1 year old blue nose “Bo” and same issues, I have tried changing foods, benedryl, Zertec, and nothing worked. There is a new drug on the market that works WONDERS called Apoquel but there is production issues with it being new th vet frequently runs out and my dog has to suffer all over again. Fish oil helps as far as what I have read in many different forums. But if you can get the Apoqeul your dog will be like a whole new dog, no bumps, no itching, and back to normal. I am praying they will straighten it out soon, he had been off it for only a month and old symptoms are right back again :(. Good luck everyone!
