Blanche - I need to find some of that shampoo!

Renee--I get it in our local drug store. It's usually kept where all the dandruff, seborrhea shampoos are.

There's a relatively easy way to determine whether your dog has food intolerances/allergies or seasonal allergies. Food intolerances will not not usually respond well to prednisone where seasonal allergies will. Unless, of course, the dog has both; then you will get inconclusive results.
