Just like humans, pets can suffer from allergies too! These allergic reactions can show up in a variety of ways, including skin irritations, respiratory issues, and gastrointestinal problems. At Winslow Park, we understand how frustrating and distressing it can be for you and your pet when dealing with allergies. Our hospital is proud to offer a variety of services to help diagnose and treat pet allergies.
Some of the most common pet allergies include food allergies, flea allergies, and environmental allergies such as pollen, mold, and dust mites. Pets with sensitive skin may also be prone to atopic dermatitis.
In addition to medical treatments, we also offer topical options such as soothing baths, shampoos, and conditioners. They are specifically formulated to help soothe irritated skin and reduce allergic reactions. In some cases, your pet may also benefit from a referral to a veterinary dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.
For more information or to schedule an appointment, please call us at (203)226-5555 or talk to one of our veterinarians during your next visit. Let us help your pet stop “scratching” their way through life and start enjoying it.
