The vet tech said that I could do a food allergy testing which you take them off all treats, meds and feed them certain things for 2/3 months at a time to figure it all out. To me that didn't sound like a good thing. the other was going to a skin specialist and having them do an allergy test on...

Cooper hardly barked when he was younger and never really does but if he hears the door bell or a knock at the door he does bark. I was so shocked the first time he did that....it actually made me feel good cause I would think he would protect me, you know. He will also bark at me if he is...

Everyones Ideas sounds great. Can't wait to see what everone does. Here is a link to one of the things I'm thinking of doing.....

Hello all just an update on Cooper. I took him to the vet on Saturday and my regular vet wasn't there but didn't want to wait til the middle of this week to see his regular doctor. Anyway the doctor came in and she looked at him and I was telling her what was going on and so she wanted to do a...

Thats awesome...lol make sure to take pics. would love to see it.

Nothing cracks me up more than when you see your boxer do the burn.... My dog makes me bust up laughing when he tears it up like that in the back yard. I always wonder what is going on in their head when they do that. So funny to watch them. I laugh at how it looks like their butt is almost...

Ok I wanted to find out who all is going to dress their babies up for halloween?? I think it would make for some great pictures. I know some may find it odd or what not but I happened to go by petsmart last night and saw this firefire costume for dogs and thought it would be funny to buy it and...

this sounds like a good idea I may have to buy some oatmeal and put it in Coopers kong sounds like a good treat

Thanks again...is is possible for them not be allergic to corn then all of the sudden bam...they are?? I've also been wondering since I have been giving Cooper a mixtured of his old food and new...I'm up to 50/50 and it seems the hives have gotten a little worse, So i'm sorta wondering if I...

when I had Cooper neutered he was a little swollen the first 2 days. I also had gotten some pills from the vet to help him stay calm. cause he was sorta his old self and I was trying to make him not do much. the pills that the vet gave me basically made him a little sleepy and he slept for most...

Wow what you described as Dozers hives sounds exactly like Coopers but they aren't the size of a nickle they are smaller. They have that raised up Bumpy hair and on his chest they are red bumps in his white hair. I am glad to hear that there is hope for me...lol Guess I just have to be patient...

There were a few of the bumps that had been opened and scabed over. I think from him scratching at them. I'll probably call the vet again to talk to them and see what else they say.

Poor guy. How long did it take for you to find out that it was food allergies? I take it that having him on Canidae has gotten rid of the allergies? is there a difference between hives and bumps?? cause I have seen before on Cooper were he's had a few red bumps on his chest and whats on his...

I think that the bumps bother me more then they do Cooper. He is his playful self and has lost of energy, Other than I notice him scratching a little more. He does play on grass in the back yard and if I take him to the doggie park. My other thought was that I realized that I turned my...

He does get treats and after looking at some of the ingredients I won't be feeding him anymore treats with Corn, Wheat, or Soy since they are a common cause of allergies in dogs. That way I can rule out that. I am in the process of switching foods with him from Eukanuba to Canidae all life...
