At Companion Animal Hospital, we recognize that pets can suffer from various dermatological issues and allergies, significantly impacting their quality of life. Our dedicated team is committed to diagnosing and treating these conditions to ensure your pet's comfort and health. Allergies in pets often manifest as skin irritations, leading to itching, redness, and discomfort. Common allergens include certain foods, environmental factors like pollen or dust mites, and flea bites. Our approach begins with a thorough examination to identify the underlying cause of your pet's symptoms. We may recommend allergy testing or elimination diets to pinpoint specific triggers. Once identified, we develop a tailored treatment plan that may involve dietary changes, medications, or immunotherapy to manage and alleviate allergic reactions.

Dermatological conditions can range from bacterial and fungal infections to parasitic infestations and autoimmune disorders. Symptoms such as persistent scratching, hair loss, or unusual skin lesions warrant prompt attention. Our veterinarians utilize advanced diagnostic tools, including skin scrapings, cultures, and biopsies, to accurately diagnose the issue. Treatment options are customized to your pet's specific condition and may include topical therapies, oral medications, or specialized shampoos. Preventive care is also a cornerstone of our dermatology services. We provide guidance on proper grooming practices, recommend parasite prevention strategies, and offer nutritional advice to support skin health. By addressing potential issues proactively, we aim to minimize the risk of chronic skin problems and enhance your pet's overall well-being. If you notice any signs of dermatological issues in your pet, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with our experienced team for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized care plan.
