Why skin health matters

Why skin health matters

Why skin health matters

Skin problems are among the most common concerns we see in pets, often presenting as itching, redness, or hair loss. While these signs may appear harmless, they can indicate more serious underlying issues such as allergies, infections, or parasites. Left untreated, even minor irritations can worsen, causing discomfort and affecting your pet’s overall well-being.

Caring for your pet’s skin is about more than comfort. It’s about protecting their quality of life. Healthy skin supports a strong immune system, prevents secondary infections, and allows your pet to stay active and playful. By addressing skin issues early, you ensure your pet feels good both inside and out.

Physical Examination

We begin with a careful, hands-on examination, assessing your pet’s skin, coat, and ears to identify visible patterns, the severity of irritation, and any potential triggers, such as fleas, parasites, or environmental factors.

Diagnostic Testing

To uncover the root cause, we may recommend advanced tests such as skin scrapings to detect mites, cytology to check for bacteria or yeast, blood work to rule out hormonal imbalances, or allergy testing.

Treatment Plan

Based on the findings, we create a customized plan that not only provides immediate relief from discomfort but also focuses on long-term management to reduce flare-ups and maintain your pet’s skin and coat health over time.

What treatment options are available for pets?

Depending on the diagnosis, we may recommend:

Medicated shampoos, ointments, or sprays

Prescription medications for infection or inflammation

Antifungal or antibiotic therapies

Dietary adjustments and allergy management

Supplements that support skin and coat health

Immunotherapy for chronic allergies

Ongoing monitoring for recurring or long-term conditions
