I have terrible, itchy allergies. I scratch so much that I have gotten two skin, bacterial infections --- and they HURT!!!! My veterinarian (believe it or not I LOVE to see my doctor) has me eating Royal Canin Hypoallergenic food. It is VERY expensive. $55 for 16 pounds. The cost for my allergy testing was $150.00. I am waiting on the results now. It takes about a month for the results to come back from the lab.

My mom went to a local herb store. They recommended 1 tablespoon of lecithin a day and one tablet of PB8 (acidopholis) a day. Between the new food and the stuff from the herb store my itching has gotten much better.

Mom mixes the PB8 and lecithin in my food. The PB8 doesn't have a taste. I like the lecithin. Sometimes I just lick it off the spoon.

I have two dogs -- Mikayla and Ellie. Mikayla is flea free thanks to Frontline. I have tried both Frontline and Advantix on Ellie, neither one works. Within one week of applying, she is covered with fleas. HELP!!!

I have talked to the vet and I was told that I could re-apply every two weeks. That doesn't help and I am going broke.

Does anyone have any solutions, any ideas? I do feed both of them brewers yeast and garlic tablets.

I get my walks early in the morning -- before the sun is up. It is TOO hot to be outside -- over 100 degrees.

My mommy and I stop at the donught store on Wednesday morning and I get a donut hole. The lady that works there looks forward to seeing me and I get special attention.
