[Dailydrool] Had Anyone used Apoquel for Their Itchy Hound?

[Molly Thompson]

HI Kimlynne,

My Lilly is horribly allergic to ragweed during Augusts. This year I 
gave her Apoquel and it was marvelous. No more scratching and crying. 
She is now off it. I only use it for about a month and a half so I'm not 
too worried about long term effects that others have noted.

Good luck.

Molly Thompson

Seems to offer some relief for a day or two but she’s still itchy.  Was told by a friend to try “Apoqel”.  She used it on her standard poodles and found instant relief.  She said the rare side effects include ear infections and weight gain, the only 2 things my  3-year old Hobs has encountered.  She gives her dogs the meds once a month and says it comes in either a pill or an injection.
