Dog Skin Allergy

 Skin allergies are one of the most common reasons dogs visit a veterinarian. Dogs with allergies may develop itching, redness, ear problems, licking of paws, or recurring skin infections. Our veterinarians identify the underlying cause and develop an individual treatment plan to improve your dog's comfort and skin health. 

 Skin allergies in cats may cause excessive grooming, hair loss, itching, scabs, or skin irritation. Allergies can result from fleas, environmental allergens, food sensitivities, or underlying skin conditions requiring veterinary evaluation. 

 Bacterial or fungal skin infections can cause redness, itching, pustules, hair loss, unpleasant odour, and skin irritation. Early diagnosis through clinical examination and laboratory testing helps determine the underlying cause and guide appropriate treatment. 

 Skin infections in cats may occur due to wounds, allergies, parasites, fungal infections, or other medical conditions. Veterinary assessment helps identify the cause and prevent the infection from progressing. 

 Ear infections are commonly seen in both dogs and cats and may cause head shaking, scratching, redness, pain, discharge, or unpleasant odour. Our veterinarians examine the ear canal to determine the cause and recommend appropriate medical treatment. 

 Hair loss may be associated with allergies, parasites, hormonal disorders, infections, stress, or chronic skin disease. A detailed dermatological examination helps identify the underlying reason and supports effective long-term management. 

 Some pets develop allergic reactions to flea or tick bites, leading to severe itching, skin irritation, and recurrent infections. Veterinary diagnosis and parasite prevention play an important role in long-term control. 

 Fungal skin infections can affect the skin, hair, and nails of dogs and cats. Early diagnosis through laboratory testing helps identify the specific fungal infection and supports appropriate treatment. 

 Bacterial skin infections may develop secondary to allergies, wounds, hormonal disease, or other underlying conditions. Accurate diagnosis helps identify contributing factors and reduce recurrence. 

 Persistent itching is often associated with allergies, parasites, skin infections, or chronic dermatological disease. Our veterinarians investigate the underlying cause and develop personalised management plans to improve your pet's quality of life.
