Itching, chewing, & allergies

About this Episode
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!
