The intradermal skin test and hyposensitization therapy were carried out for diagnosis and treatment in dogs with allergic dermatitis. Eighty-one (75%) out of 108 dogs tested showed positive reactions against 19 different allergens, in which flea and house dust were major causative antigens. As high as 17 dogs (77%) in 22 cases treated with hyposensitization therapy showed complete or remarkable improvement of skin lesions evaluated by the Halliwell's grading method. It is suggested that hyposensitizaton therapy based on the results of intradermal skin test is a highly effective treatment for canine allergic dermatitis.
