Goat has not received any gifts yet

About Me:: yo! c:
people call me goat but my real name is stephanie. dont ask why they call me that XD.
I'm an artist, an animator, and occasionally a dj.
I signed up on mycorgi.com to see if i could find a cure for my poor corgi. she has really bad allergies!

About My Corgi(s):: Shiba, my pembroke welsh corgi is about 2 years of age and has horrible allergies... My family and I have tried just about everything! She isnt allergic to her food so its most likely fleas but its impossible to keep them off her. Everything the vets have given us hasn't solved anything. the only thing that worked were the steroids but they're dangerous and you cant keep giving you dog that... its a shame because it made her stop scratching. now she has to go about the house with a cone around her neck so she doesn't rip any holes in herself. This is very stressful for me and her. If you have a solution please tell me!

We switched to Advantage which worked somewhat better. Many here like Comfortis, the oral tablet. What have you tried? My kitty gets the prednisone shot for his allergies, it sure does do the trick. Try the inflatable e-collar in the meantime, it is lots more comfy than the plastic cone.
