allergies in dogs

[caprinegal]

I have a 20 lb terrier mix who has allergies. I’ve been giving her 20mg of Benadryl a couple times a week. I really don’t like giving her those meds. She currently is taking 1/2 tsp of NoMo Spasms and Joint Formula daily. What would you recommend that I could give her that would help with her allergies? I also would like to take an herb for mine as well.

I just re-read my message and should clarify – I realize the joint herbs that she is taking have no correlation to her allergies. Would the herbal blends that you offer work with her and would there be any interaction issues with the Joint Herbs? I am looking for an herbal alternative to Benadryl or other anti-histamines. I apologize for the confusion. Thank You.

Look into Brigham Tea (

Thank you. I’m ordering some now.

Brigham tea is quite good.

This formula also is good (it has Brigham tea in it too).

The problem with dogs with allergies is that they’re sometimes allergic to the herbs too so don’t get any benefit.

Humans respond more reliably.

Doc

Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.

I think that my dog is allergic to Brigham Tea. she’s been taking it for 3 weeks and her allergies grew worse. I stopped giving it to her and she is breathing better.

Thank you for that insight.
