Episode 22: Itching, chewing, & allergies

There's a lot of misinformation when it comes to doodles and allergies. Is it food? Is it a medical condition? Is it vaccines? In this episode I'm interviewing an expert on allergies in dogs: Dr. Joy Barbet a veterinary dermatologist. We will address: The most common cause of itchiness for dogs that very few dog owners suspect. Why food allergies are less common than environmental allergies. Why middle aged dogs are more likely to have food allergies than younger dogs. And much more!
