Dogs with allergies?

Well, this is more of a poll than a question. It's Spring! Which means there is plenty of pollen in the air. I was wondering how many of you have a dog that is showing signs of pollen allergies. My 9 week pup is sneezing quite often when I bring him outside now that the pollen is in the air...But, it's not causing a breathing problem or anything. So I am not worried that it can be anything worse. And he is up to date on shots...

But, how many of you also have a dog with pollen allergies?

He's not sneezing bad like alot! I mean he just sneezes when I take him out...I am going to take him to the vet in a couple more weeks for his 12 week shots...I will probably ask them then to have him tested.

I have a dog with many allergies. I would reccomend taking him to your local vet and getting him allergie tested. Since he is only 9 weeks old he could be forming allergies to something outside early such as grass, a certain flower and a tree that is around your house. Our dog is allergic to a certain tree and moss so you never know what your dog is going to be allergic to. He could even be allergic to human dander. Our dog is! We had never heard of that before our dog. The vet will give you shots to give your dog monthly to take most of the allergies away. good luck. Hope this helps!

My Cairn Terrier has pollen and grass allergies. When I rescued her she had chewed almost all her hair off from it.
With vet care and allergy free food she looks beautiful now. Both my dogs have been sneezing some lately but the 45 mile per hour wind yesterday cleared everything out of the air!

I have a beagle that has allergies she is 8 years old. Our vet has me give her an over the counter allergy pill occasionally.

My dogs have developed more eye boogers due to the pollens.
