Just like in humans, pet allergies are on the rise and are the most common issue affecting dogs and cats.
Symptoms can appear harmless, so it’s important to know the signs.

Common symptoms in dogs
1. Itchy, bumpy or red skin
2. Scratching including rubbing on carpet, licking or chewing paws
3. Ear infection or irritation
Remember: Dogs don’t groom! So over-licking or scratching are often signs of irritation
As the weather gets warmer, watch for the above symptoms and book a veterinary consult if you’re concerned your pet may be affected.
As always, if you have any questions at all, please call our friendly clinic team.

Common symptoms in cats
1. Excessive grooming and licking
2. Coughing or asthma, but not wheezing
3. Hair loss in certain areas – can be allergy-related
As the weather gets warmer, watch for the above symptoms and book a veterinary consult if you’re concerned your pet may be affected.
As always, if you have any questions at all, please call our friendly clinic team.
