<DIV>ALLERGIES ???????? oh boy do we know about allergies, it is a
full time job trying to keep Maggie comfortable, NO PREDS !!!!
my first Basset died of liver failure because of the over use of preds for her
allergies. I started Maggie Wags on allergy desensitizing
injections and they are a tremendous help, but not a cure all, she
will still get flare ups just like humans do, I give her a bath every two weeks
with a special shampoo and NO OATMEAL here either. Maggie is allergic to
oatmeal. I feed her California Natural lamb & rice or California
Natural Chicken & rice, trust me, I have done a major search on foods
and there are lots of good foods out there, but most, not all , have
either oatmeal, barley, peas or potato or potato protein or alfalfa
in them and Maggie is allergic to all of those. so I searched for
one meat ( protein ) and one carbohydrate that is how I came up with
California Natural, Flint River also as a good lamb & rice, but all of
their other products, Maggie is allergic to their ingredients .</DIV>

<DIV>I have also just realized that Maggie is allergic to her heartworm meds
because almost all heartworm meds are flavored tabs, she is allergic to
beef, so she has a major breakout for about 7 days after taking her
heartworm.</DIV>

<DIV>Jackie, did you say Pierre likes Pizza ?? oh gosh
Maggie & Annie love Pizza, all I have to say is " PIZZA MAN IS
HERE" and they both run for the back door, but we are good slaves
and have sacrificed ourselves because Maggie is allergic to
the Pizza crust, so we stopped eating Pizza and Annie can't understand WHY she
has to sacrifice herself for her stupid sister. we have been EXTREMELY
diligent lately about what Maggie gets and even our vet said that this is
the best he has ever seen her look</DIV>
