Super bowl fun

One thing we do at our house is have an appetizer party for the super bowl. The kids love this, and it helps allow me to watch the game. :-)

Pets love it too because they get some of their food treats. - No none of the chips and salsa.

This week we have seen a few patients that have been itching -and in the dead of winter. If you have this, call us. We have created a steroid sparing strategies worksheet for clients to work on that is very helpful at reducing itch, and therefor reducing the expense involved.

The oother thing causing itching this time of year is food allergies. We used to think this was mainly a problem if you changed food, but it is more common when the dog or cat has been on the same food.

So for food allergies, we do a food trial, and we have some homemade recipes for folks to use if you don't want to get the specialty food for the pet.

Have fun on SSuper bowl Sunday!
