[Dailydrool] Mathilda Update

[Celine Rupka]

First... thanks to all the droolers who responded with help/ideas for  
Mathilda and her itching/licking/ear gunk problem.

I'm sure this is an allergy, and have decided to have her allergy  
tested, however, where we live (Southern Ontario), the vet- 
dermatologists will not do any testing until the end of September, due  
to the high possibility of false positives on the test, due to all the  
stuff in the air/on the ground.  So... in the meantime, I have decided  
to take the advice of several droolers, and am switching Mathilda to a  
"wheat-free" diet, to see if this will help.  Nothing to lose right?

But... this means getting rid of a bunch of treats which I have,  
because I buy all-natural treats from a dog bakery, about an hour from  
my house.  I know the ones with wheat flour need to go... but what  
about the ones with spelt or oat flour?  Should I get rid of these as  
well?  Any help from droolers who have their bassets on a wheat-free  
diet would be fabulous!

Thanks!

Celine and Mathilda
