We are miserable lately.
We have the itchies up the wa-zoooo.
Fatty's feets are red and his hairs are dwindling on his belly.
She water boards us in medicated shampoo, she rinses our feets after walks,
we get meds and anti-his-tameeeens,
we get brushed, massaged,
and carried.
This is the worse year and season for allergies yet.
Are you experiencing anything unusual?
Itchy and red,
Lily & Edward
Ruby has been suffering since spring time and usually by May is 100% better but she is still having issues and now even Owen is being affected, he has red watery eyes every day. Medicated baths and a zyrtec are helping but this year is horrible...we are in Oklahoma. Even mine have been bad. Feel better Lily and Edward, winter will be here sooner than we think!
ReplyDeleteWhat's going on! I forgot to mention Benadryl too
DeletePoor itchy and scratchy.
ReplyDeleteNo allergies but I did need a grass seed extraction from my ear-hole 'cos they ain't cutting the grass around here.

Lily and Edward we are so sorry about your itches. I know it must be more miserable when it is hot too..mom is the one in our family who normally gets the itches. 'skeeters love her...she recently learned folks with her type blood, O, (her's is + too...which must make her tastier) are more attractive to biting insects. I wish I could send you some of my super powered kitty slobber.
ReplyDeletehugs madi your bfff
Smudge is itching and shedding too...So sorry that you are. I hope that your itches go away soon.
ReplyDeletePoor baby. These itchies are nutty
DeleteMy sissy Cinderella has bad allergies and is SO itchy this year! We don't know of anything to help, we've tried all we can!
ReplyDeleteMy sweet Pickle's allergies are just now doing better but they were really bad around spring time. He's been on antibiotics, prednisone, Answers raw goats milk and benadryl but nothing has helped like a product I found through a Frenchie that had been rescued. A vet donated to it the foster mom and she took pictures to show his progress. It worked wonderful for him so I ordered and gave it a try. It's called Omega Booster. The website is www.HEALx.com. it's a bit expensive, I ordered the large jar and found as soon as I ran out his welts and bumps would return. It has really been a good product for Pickle. I went to re order and found that because of the heat they don't ship from I believe May - Aug. Check out their website for before and after pictures. If you give it a try be sure to order the large jar and the Omega Booster NOT just Booster. I made that mistake with my first order and quickly ran out of the small jar and the Omega is better for allergies. Good luck Lily and Edward, we hope your itchies go away!!! 💜
ReplyDeleteThank you! We will try it
DeleteYou poor darling's I do hope you feel better soon...it's not fair...nothing worse than feeling itchy and miserable ...and with skeeters Madi..tell mum to eat lot's of bananas....don't know why but they seem to work for some peeps ..hugs and loves and stay cool guys being warm will make you itch more as you sweat......xxxFozziemum xx

ReplyDeleteWe haf not had that problem very bad so far, momma read somewhere that if you put organic apple cider vinegar just a small bit in ours water it would help wif that, AND she always rinses us off in that also after a bath. She puts a couple of capfuls in 1 cup of warm water and pours it overs us. At first it does smell a little bit like a pickle but then we dry nice and soft and fluffy and no itchies. We are sorry you are itching so bad.
ReplyDeletestella rose
We lick our cider off, BOL
DeleteAwww, poor babies! I hope you get some relief from the yuckies soon.
ReplyDeleteOh yes! My paws are itchy and a bit swollen from me chewing on the itchies all the time. I have lost hair on my paws and back legs too. It is terrible. Ma just got some new stuff to try...some kind of natural stuffs. I'll let you know if it helps.
ReplyDeleteOz
Pickles recommended some stuffs above
DeleteOh no you poor fur babies. We send you healing vibes and POTP. Wonder what is causing it? Have a terrific Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
Oh please feel better soon, hope the allergies will disappear. I have some problems since yesterday too, I have to fight against my allergy what's always inside of my thighs, hope I haven't to wear a cone because I always lick the treatment away...
ReplyDeleteYep I have never had the itchies before and now this year I have started. I am taking an antihistomean and my spots are just little. Hopefully this will end soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being a friend

Try rubbing a little coconut oil into their coats and bellies! Also add a teaspoon of it to their diet you will see a marked improvement in a week or so! I also massage it into dukes paws and put his socks on! No more foot problems!
ReplyDeleteHey guys I did hear you yelling and screaming and saw you jumpin up and down BUTT the doods toles me they were on a time schedule so I could not stop, but if we have time before we leaves town I will come by wif the big ole bus and gives you a ride okay?
ReplyDeleteAngus Mac
I hear you guys - Dweeb has the itchy feet going on and I have itchies all over....I get shots for my allergies though - they are the only thing that helps
ReplyDeleteNo itches here but we hope yours are gone very soon!! Have you ever tried coconut oil? I've heard it does wonders for allergies, just start with a tiny spoonful because it can cause your poopies to be loose! Not good!
ReplyDeleteThe itchies must be terrible! We sure hope they go away soon!

Oh, I hear ya guys!!! I takes the Benadryls twice a day. That Omega stuffs sounds interestin', the vettie did say some of that Fish Oil should help too.
ReplyDeleteLuckily, I have been able to avoid the water torture...☺
Kisses,

My older boy started getting allergies about two years ago when July turns to August. I guess some pollen starts blooming at that time. Time year he has chewed himself a bit raw on one leg. I feel so bad for him!
ReplyDeleteHope your pups find relief soon, too!
Do you know what you're allergic to? My Guinness, a Cocker Spaniel, has food allergies environmental,allergies. She is on a special diet and gets allergy shots, two Benadryls a day and she still itches, especially under her chin and on her bum! Don't know what else to do for her. It seems this time of year is the worst!
ReplyDeleteSorry about those nasty itches. Hope you feel better soon. Benji tries Benadryl but that doesn't help his itches.
ReplyDeleteOh, no! You poor pups! We hope you get some itchy-relief!!!
ReplyDeleteCammie!
Itchies....yuck! We hope the itch season gets over quickly.
ReplyDeleteThe NorthCoast is being hit hard too! I had to take Mr. Arty the itchie man in to the vet last week to see if they can do anything for him, I think that we need a good rain u here to get all the crud out of the air.....poor fur-kids...what is a California Mama to do???
ReplyDeleteMama Beth
(Who has also had to take Benedryl, FloNase and/or Sudafed all summer...UGH!)
We are quite thankful none of us have allergies. It sounds horrid!
ReplyDeleteOh Doggies, we feel so sorry for you, we have never had those kinds of problems!
ReplyDeleteThe Mad Scots
The Coconut Oil stuffs is pretty good.... butt start Slow or your poop shooters will go WILD... We have been having it on our foods since MARCH and it makes our FURS SOFT on top of everythingy else.
ReplyDeleteNow about that VINEGAR... you need to get it from a NATURAL Source... like a Farmer's Market or such... and ASK... "will this get MOTHER in the jar?"... THAT is what you need... not the regular kind from the REGULAR Grocery store...
Your mom can make a SOLUTION 1 part Vinegar and 5 parts Water... then Stand in it... and have your mom pour it over you... PEE S... it is OK to drink it... just a little of it... DO NOT RINSE it off. Just Pat dry.
It works for LOTS of the thingys that cause us to Itch...
BUTT have you asked your Dogtor about this... It MIGHT be a Yeast Infection... and the Vinegar works for THAT too...
BUTT you MUST do the Vinegar thingy DAILY for about 3 weeks.. for it to work for ANY cause.
PEE S.... you CAN use the same solution for 3 days..before starting a new solution. THAT saves a bit on the ol' Fleasa Card. If you get our drift.
THIS is what OHIO STATE Univ. VET. School Recommended fur Angel Pretzel when she had MAJOR itchies.
Cody was in the Spring but so far so good, talk to me when Fall starts, bet it will be a different story. Hoping you get some relief soon!
ReplyDeleteWe sure hope you guys feel better soon. The severe itchies can't be much fun!
ReplyDeleteLove ya lots♥
Mitch and Molly
I am allergic to god knows what. When it is really bad, I get some prednisolon and it helps. Nothing else help me.
ReplyDeleteTry Apoquel. New drug from our vet and it works for our frenchie. Lola tested over 3000 on local grasses and trees here in Illinois. She was losing hair and getting sores on her belly and her feet were puffy from chewing them. It works so well. Drug is hard for vet to get because it is in demand and not enough supply at this time. We tried immune shots for two years then prednisone which helped but made her more aggressive with our other two frenchies. Now she is a happy girl! Please try it.
ReplyDeleteI am only a fly's twat away from being itchy at any given time...thank goodness not at the moment.
ReplyDeleteThoughts are with you. Xxxx
Well I think Flora mis typed her comment . and I cannot stop laughing SORRY
ReplyDeleteOh My Dog! I can't believe She waterboards you! What's a nice pair of Frenchies to do? Hope your allergies go away soon.

My BFF Finley has real bad itchies, but hers are kinda year round.
ReplyDeleteI've just spent the last 5 days in the #ConeofShame I'm with you pal! Love Dolly
ReplyDeleteOh no! Greta is actually having a much better summer than last year when hers first started. we had her on Limited Ing Food all winter and spring. And over the winter 2.5 mil of prednisone every 3 rd day, But she got itchy again in June. so she gets her 1/2 pill every other day. We are also trying Nu-Vet Plus to see if it helps. Also have been introducing more food back in her diet which seem to be going OK. Even though the vet says the prednisone is such a low dose it wont hurt her , mom would rather find a way to do without
ReplyDeletehugs

That stinks! Since I started giving Coco local raw honey, we haven't had too much trouble with allergies. You poor thing!
ReplyDeleteMom says we are very lucky not to have those kinds of allergies, but we are so sorry you both have the mega-itchies. We are sure your Mom has tried everything and that she has the best of medical attention, but has she ever tried adding some oil to your kibble? Or do you get fish oil capsules? Just a thought.
ReplyDeleteWoos - Phantom, Ciara, and Lightning
I had the itches terrible a month or so ago. Mom got me a limited ingredient diet food and that has helped a lot...not completely, but not constant.
ReplyDeleteFeel better!
-Mister
Poor sweeties. Are you guys okay? Is the Mom taking good care of you? Is it the weather?
ReplyDeleteYep, I'm a member of the itchy club, too. It's a club I never want to join again.

My mom's beagle always seems to be red and itchy. When my dad was alive, he took the dog to the vet several times for various tests and they never did figure out what was causing it. The vet thought maybe the dog was allergic to wheat, so that was cut out of his diet. Doesn't seem to help much though!
ReplyDeleteMy dad had bought various anti-itch treatments for the dog before taking him to the vet. The vet said that they probably just made the dog itchier. :( I'm not sure what, if anything, my mom gives him for the itchies now.
The girls are hanging in there, but I am having a tough time with my asthma lately.
ReplyDeleteMy Frenchie moved from the East to West Coast last month and has developed hives, eye issues AND itches with footsie chewing. We were able to secure a prescription of Apoquel & it's amazing here on day 3!!
ReplyDeletePoor Lily & Edward. We hope you stop itching soon.
ReplyDeleteWally & Sammy
OMD poor Lily and Edward. And Mom too. Miserable for all of you. Mom sais we should Knock on some Wood ( don't know what that has to do with a terrible case of itchies). Butt we have been lucky.. No itchies at all...

Poor guys! Itchies are miserable. We usually get the red paws and underbelly too. Mosquito bites look like welts. This summer we've been taken Quercetin which is a natural antihistamine. It's working for us better than Benadryl did as far as the redness (and incessant licking). Our holistic vet recommended it, and we get it from Amazon. Hope you are feeling better soon!
