We took Myrtle to the dermatologist about 2 weeks ago and he prescribed
Apoquel, of course I was skeptical as nothing else has worked for her
skin condition and hair loss, but I am happy to say we have seen a HUGE
improvement!!!! Her itching is about 95% better and she seems to have
more energy, although we have only seen a little hair growth on her
face. I am so happy she is feeling better and not scratching herself
raw, I really didn't know what else to do for her and she was so
uncomfortable. I am not a fan of pumping dogs full of meds and tried
the holistic approach to this, but the infection she has is really
stubborn and the homeopathics were just not helping her skin. We will
post more as her condition approves!!!

Pleas try tis great Daily Canine Supplement: NuVet Plus. All natural with vitamins, minerals and amino acids. Please check out their website: www.nuvet.com. -- all made in the USA. My both BT's have really benefited from this. I think added to Myrtles meds, would aid her in recovery. My name is Caroline and I'm interested in adopting Myrtle when that is possible. Thanks
