Tucker has allergies and when he was tested they recommended shots. We decided to hold off due to all his other issues and he had only a couple outbreaks. Well currently Tucker is suffering from severe hot spots where his leg rubs his belly. It went from being red yesterday to purple tonight. We'll be taking him in first thing in the AM. I'm sure our vet will send us back to the dermatologist to start shots.
Tucker's major allergies are to our desert plants and grasses. Although we try to keep the yard clear it is impossible to rid the air of those things he is allergic to.
Anyone here treating their canine with allergy shots? What did you try before shots? For all those that have dogs that suffer with allergies please share your experience; what worked, what didn't.....I'm open to ALL suggestions. Shots are a LAST resort.

P.S. Tucker does not have food allergies
