I really thought Auzzy was just being dramatic… The constant scratching, licking his paws, rolling around - I kept thinking “what is going on with you?”
So, I did what most of us do… baths, sprays, every “natural” remedy I could find online. And honestly? Nothing was actually helping him.
It wasn’t until I talked to my vet that I realized - he wasn’t being dramatic… he was uncomfortable with allergic itch. Since finding Apoquel (oclacitinib tablet), I finally feel like I have my dog back. Happy, cuddly… and not constantly trying to scratch himself.
If your dog’s been acting “off,” it might be worth looking into what’s really going on. Ask a vet if Apoquel could be right for your dog.
