📝Understanding Skin-Allergies in Pets 🌟🧡

Allergies are a common issue that can lead to various skin and ear conditions in dogs. Pets often manifest allergies through their skin, regardless of whether the allergen is ingested, inhaled, or in direct contact with their skin. 🐶🩺☹️

A few signs of Skin-Allergies in Dogs:

🐾 Persistent scratching, chewing, or licking of paws
🐾 Rubbing their face or having recurrent ear infections
🐾 Itchy behavior causing hair loss
🐾 Skin changes like reddening or thickening

Types of Allergies in Dogs:

Food Allergies 🍲: Dogs with food allergies usually have chronic itchy skin or ears. These symptoms can occur year-round or worsen with seasonal changes.
Veterinary diagnosis can involve a food trial with a hypoallergenic diet. 🚫 Discuss with your vet the possibility of trying Hypoallergenic diet!

Atopic Dermatitis (Atopy) 🌿: This hereditary sensitivity causes reactions to pollen, grass, dust mites, and mold spores. Treatment often includes allergy shots and avoiding known allergens. 🏡💨

Secondary Infections 🦠: Allergies can lead to secondary bacterial or yeast infections, complicating treatment. Long-term medications and medicated baths may be needed. 🧼💧

Flea Allergy 🪲: Flea allergic dermatitis is a common issue in many regions. Ensuring your pet is on effective flea prevention is crucial. 🐕🛡️

Allergies are managed, not cured, and often fluctuate with seasons or environmental changes. Effective management may include a combination of treatments such as medicated shampoos, corticosteroids, anti-histamines, and immunotherapy. 🌈💊
If you notice any of these symptoms in your pet or have concerns about allergies, reach out to us! Our team is here to provide expert care and guidance. 👩‍⚕️🧡🐾

🐾 Meet Nutmeg! 🐾

We are thrilled to share Nutmeg's incredible success story with you! 🌟💪🌸🐶
Last year, Nutmeg became increasingly overweight 😔. She was struggling with fatigue, obesity, and brittle hair at just 3 years old. Her devoted owners never lost hope and were determined to help her feel better. 🙌 After a thorough investigation with Dr. Deagle, we made important changes to her diet and discovered through a thyroid test that Nutmeg had thyroid insufficiency. 🩺

Fast forward to today, Nutmeg is a vibrant and healthy 4-year-old dog! 🎉 Thanks to her treatment and lifestyle changes, including thyroid medication, she now has a sleek waist, a shiny coat, and an amazing energy level! ✨ Check out these photos to see her nowadays! 📸

Nutmeg's journey is a testament to the power of perseverance and proper care. 🐶💪
