When your dog has allergies

If you or your vet have come to the conclusion that your dog has allergies here are a couple of handy tips.
Your mission should you choose to accept it is to start with the most obvious thing. If you have cats for example, cats are most likely the cause. If it is diarrhea, it may be a diet issue. You can switch your dog food to veterinary quality dog food that specializes in combating allergies. Ask for that at your local pet shop. A grocery store will NOT have this. I'm not sure about Pet Co or Pet Land but you can ask. If you are getting nowhere find a small independently owed pet store, talk to them and even arrange to get it ordered for you.

If you have cats you must vacuum twice a day. Also, the best purchase I ever made was the HEPA Air Filter. This thing gets all the cat dander from the air.

After that change the type of bedding that you have. If you have feather pillows get foam. If you have a wool blanket get something that doesn't have wool

If the coughing stops this will mean that your dog  is not allergic to the cats. It will take a bit for the dogs lungs to get out all the stuff causing te cough and it takes about three days. .

If you've got this far and the coughing and sneezing is not going away. It most likely the cats or can also be the kitty litter so change the brand of littler just in case.

If cats are the problem this in what I have done and which you may want to follow. All I can tell you is that is that it worked for me.

I stated giving him a couple drop lets of cough syrum and allergy medicine for children NO alcohol. Still the cough persisted and in this order. Think of this like a recipe it's a good idea to follow it. If you do not like following the recipe it's NOT going to work.

#1.   Brush the cats or cats until there is not more shedding and know that you will be doing this once a day for a very long time.

#2.   Purchase the best product ever for getting cat dander out of the air. This stuff REALLY works. Do NOT buy the cheaper version.. It is made by a company called Simple Solutions.
The product is called, Dander Reducing Serum.    The instructions say to use a damp cloth to apply right to the skin but a cloth doesn't get that deep so I put a little liquid in my hand and rub that directly onto the cat.
You have to do that weekly however it will be well worth it- even if you have kids with allergies and cats.


#3 It is not negotiable that you MUST BUY this product. It is a children's medicine that is supposed to relive cough that dry hacking and horse throat which is common in mild allergic reactions.
The company is called. SIMILASAN. The product is called KIDS COUGH AND COLD.

This is a homeopathic product with $100% tnatual ingredients. I haven done enough research on the listed Active ingredients on the side of the bottle but is was unlike any of the ingredient on the average children's cough medicine. You might want to do research on exactly what thosee words mean in the ingredients It sounded to me like some kind of mixture of herbal extracts.

I gave my dog a "teaspoon" My dog weights about 14 pounds so make the weigTh adjustments accordingly. I gave him about two teaspoons a day one in moNring and one at nigT- when he woke up coughing. Every two days I began to lower the does now he takes a half teaspoon. At this point I am not sure whether to take him off the cough syrup perminantly. There mighT be something in it that his body need to maintain healthy levels, like a blood thinner, or pills for a diabetic

IN FIVE DAYS my dog was not longer coughing on a regular base. He continues to cough a little at night but not as bad as before. Over time I have found that the cough will begin to lessen..

GOOD LUCK!!! Below are pictures of the products I used.
