[RC] hate mail no more, I need help! - Nancy

OK ya all, enough of this beating each other up!
Lyric (as usual) has a new problem that needs solving.  I had Lyric (AKA
The Princess) allergy tested and did I get a shock.  She is allergic to over
20 different trees, grasses, grains, fungi, etc.  Specifically she is
allergic to Bermuda, brome, Johnson grass, ragweed, Lamb's quarters, sage,
Russian thistle, juniper, eucalyptus ( Oh, I am so in trouble, we of the
land of towering euks), Arizona cypress, 7 different fungi, molasses, oats,
rice bran, jute and sisal, stable fly and barley pollen.   She is also
sensitive to oak (and we have at least 50 on our property), fire bush, corn,
cedar shavings and wheat pollen.  So, help, what the heck can I feed the
Princess now?
My vet suggested I start feeding her Timothy, at $20 a bale laughed and
stated the obvious," she is a princess, isn't she?" That said Lyric is fine
with beet pulp but, what can I feed her at rides when she hits the wall at
the 3rd vet check?
As I am unwilling to remove my oak trees due to environmental and legal
issues (they are protected and beautiful), has anyone had experience with
the de-sensation shots?  Hope this gets all you fifty folks something
constructive to work on.  Thank you in advance for your advice and
suggestions.  Back to my hole,
