Pip came home to us 3 years ago. She did not trust people or dogs.
The most striking thing was her very pink skin, with blotchy hairless spots and bare purplish feet. She had been on Apoquel for 6-months and – ignorant me – I continued the medication for another 18 months. Several hundred dollars later with Allergy Tests and different diets, and daily Apoquel meds, she continued to be an itchy little dog.
Dr. Khalsa’s book – ‘The Allergic Pet’ to the rescue! After our phone consultation, we began Allergy Elimination 4 Pets. Both Pip and I enjoyed our quiet time with the acupressure sessions.
We had stopped the Apoquel and the food restrictions, and the formerly prescribed medicated shampoo when we started the protocol. Pip steadily improved and by the time we completed the Allergy Elimination 4 Pets, she was a happy and content dog with a beautiful coat and no more scratching.
It was really a new life for Pip (and me) with the continual distractions from allergies gone!
A miracle!
