Thank you RT. Yes, I feel quality of life is important at her age, which is why I did not stop the Apoquel cold turkey. She has been through a lot and I was afraid she would be a hot mess again if I did. She has not had a vaccine for quite a while (is due for Rabies, but I’m definitely not going there) and no flea or tick meds for years. I’m doing what I can to try to keep her comfortable and healthy.
I have heard about Goldens being more prone to cancer and am so very thankful that she is in good health besides the itching. I’m sorry you have had such trouble with your Goldens. They are such a wonderful breed. She is our second.
