Glowing Coats Learn More Nurturing pet skin health and dermatology.

Pet Dermatology Your pet's skin is a vital organ that plays a crucial role in their overall health and well-being. Skin issues can be uncomfortable and distressing for your furry friend, but rest assured, our expert team of veterinarians is here to provide comprehensive dermatological care to keep your pet's skin healthy and happy.

What is Pet Dermatology? Pet dermatology focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of skin conditions affecting animals. These conditions can range from common issues like allergies and infections to more complex diseases such as autoimmune disorders and hormonal imbalances.

Signs Your Pet May Need Dermatological Care:

  • Itching and Scratching: Persistent scratching, licking, or chewing at the skin can indicate an underlying skin problem.
  • Hair Loss: Patchy or excessive hair loss can be a sign of dermatological issues.
  • Redness and Inflammation: Redness, swelling, or inflammation of the skin may indicate an allergic reaction or infection.
  • Odor: Foul odors coming from your pet’s skin or ears could be a sign of infection.
  • Changes in Coat Quality: Dull, dry, or greasy fur can be indicative of underlying skin problems.
