Why does the cost of the same procedure vary between

What can be done about allergies to a pet?
The first thing to do is to ascertain that it really is the pet causing
such reactions. This is done by removing the person from the animal's
environment for a week or two and look for an improvement in his or
her allergies. If the pet is the cause, there are many different possibilities.
These range from avoiding contact with a pet to avoiding shared spaces.
Depending on how mild or severe the allergies are, cleanliness changes
may suffice (such as keeping the animal well-groomed or utilizing air
cleaning technologies.) There are also many medical sprays, shampoos,
and medicines which can be chosen instead.

are also available in a training leash form.
