What kind of skin conditions can my pet have?

There are plenty of reasons your pet could be itchier than usual. They may have been exposed to poison ivy or ticks in the region. New products at home, chemicals in cleaning supplies or food, can also trigger a skin reaction. Before we tackle the cause, the first step in caring for your pet’s well-being is recognizing the signs. If their skin has developed sores, blisters, hot spots (raw, moist areas) or bumps, it’s time to bring them in for an appointment. They may even be showing signs of discomfort by excessive itching or awkwardly moving to avoid touching the afflicted area. The sooner we can examine your pet, the faster we can diagnose and treat them.

How can I find out the cause of my pet’s skin condition?

We can’t guarantee you’ll always find the source of your pet’s skin problem but we can try. First, we’ll have to diagnose them through blood tests and a thorough head to tail check. Then we’ll have an in depth conversation about our findings. During this time, we’ll ask questions about where they’ve been, spaces they like to explore and displays of odd behaviour. These inquiries let us know whether your pet has been exposed to parasites in risky areas, such as woodlands or a new dog park.
