In 2008, Sam developed severe skin allergies that went
undiagnosed with numerous other veterinarians. His coat
became oily and foul smelling, his skin was inflamed and swollen,
and he began to lose patches of hair due to the incessant
scratching. He was miserable and I was heartbroken to see my
K-9 partner suffer.
I was referred to Dr. Jean Greek, a dermatology and allergy
specialist. After an extensive testing procedure, Dr. Greek
identified a dozen things that Sam is allergic to, many of which he
comes in direct contact with every day at work and home. Sam
immediately began a series of antigens which were created
specifically for his needs.
Within a few weeks, Sam was on his way to becoming a new
dog! Today, Sam's coat is shiny and healthy. In
addition to his healthy appearance, Sam's energy level skyrocketed
since he no longer spends all his time scratching at himself.
Thank you, Dr. Greek!
