Hi, everybody...we just came back from 2 weeks away, and found Legolas, our L'i'l Guy, in terrible shape. He's licked himself raw in several places, and can't get comfortable anywhere. He thrashes around on the floor, our laps, his bed because his whole body itches so badly. We roared over to the vet with him the very next morning, and she gave him a shot...some steroid...which helped him before but doesn't seem to have given him much relief. That was Friday, and Sunday afternoon he's still in pretty bad shape. We, including the vets, his regular one and the specialist, have thought it was a food allergy...but while we were gone, the pet sitter was feeding all three of our kids the special allergy food, and giving L'i'l Guy the triamcinalone pills and this still happened!We'll take him back to the vet tomorrow. Meanwhile, does anyone know how to give him some relief??? We put the anti-itch gel on the raw spots, and he's mostly leaving them alone, but the overall squirming is breaking our hearts. And, of course, he won't eat, and is positively gaunt. Please help if you can!?! Thanks
