    Default Allergies and Atopica

    I have two pugs that constantly lick their paws, and rub themselves all over the furniture and carpet. My male pug recently got an ear infection, so we took a trip to the vet. The vet said they have pretty bad allergies (nothing physically visible, though) and that is to blame for the ear infections and the licking. He prescribed Atopica for both of them, and I just want to get some feedback on this medication. Does anyone have experiences with it?

    No experience with the drug but I would eliminate all grains from their diet and see if that helps. Keep us posted.
