Allergies in pets are just as easy to spot as in humans with many of the same symptoms. However, one which appears more often than any other is licking or chewing obsessively. These are the symptoms which could be a tell-tale sign that your pet is suffering and needs to be brought into us:
Allergies such as skin, bacterial, and food sensitivities make life uncomfortable for your pet. Protect your cat, dog, or other animal from irritating allergies with a proper diagnosis.
- Problems with the skin, perhaps being itchy, moist, red or scabbed over where the pet has constantly been scratching at it.
- You may notice that your pet is scratching more often. If the animal is suffering from a flea allergy then most of the scratching will be centered on the back or at the base of the tale.
- Bloodshot or Runny Eyes.
- Oozing from the ears, or other symptoms of ear infection. Your dog could also be scratching the ears.
- Sneezing
- Diarrhea
- Vomiting
- Increased levels of snoring.
- Chewing at their paws or constantly licking
We’re determined to help you discover the cause of your pet’s irritation. We will recommend the best long-term treatment plans to get them back on track to live their happy, healthy life. Veterinary allergy testing can be done in a variety of ways, including hypoallergenic diet testing to determine food allergies. We can diagnose and address these types of allergies in hospital or we can refer you to a dermatologist or other specialist.
