Dr. Tobin- I was finally able to get my dog an allergy test. Sadly, it wasn't the intradermal skin test due to the extremely high cost. I got his test results of the blood test and.. its quite outrageous. It seems like he's allergic to almost everything. There are five positives (200-400); 28 borderlines (151-174); 15 borderline-positives (175-199). I was already able to remove 4 of the borderline-positives that are food related, but the rest are trees, molds, grasses, indoor, weeds, other list. Obviously, its not helping because he has the same issues which seem to be becoming larger problems. I don't want him to constantly suffer. What can I do? I'm at a brick wall. I don't know what I can do for him. I hope you can help. Thank you.

As I have mentioned before, the allergy blood tests are very unreliable. I would try putting your pet on one type of meat, in a homemade diet, with nothing else, and absolutely no commercial food or snacks, adding only fish oil. It would also be worthwhile contacting a holistic veterinarian about this problem.
