Types of Skin Allergies in Pets

Atopic Dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis is a common allergic skin condition in pets, often triggered by environmental factors like pollen, mold, or dust mites. Symptoms may include itching, redness, recurrent ear infections, and skin inflammation.

Food Allergies 

Certain ingredients in pet food can lead to allergic reactions, manifesting in skin issues. Identifying and eliminating allergens from your pet's diet is crucial in managing food-related skin allergies. Signs include itching, gastrointestinal issues, and skin redness.

Contact Dermatitis 

Pets can develop skin issues from contact with irritants like certain plants, fabrics, or cleaning agents. This type of problem often results in localized redness, itching, and inflammation. Signs include red patches, swelling, and discomfort.
