Why should my pet get tested for allergies?

We can develop a long-term treatment plan to help ease symptoms and enhance your pet’s quality of life after a suitable diagnosis. Every habitat is different, and each animal type and breed has its own reactions to it.

When should my pet get tested?

Your pet is entitled to a comfortable life. Preliminary testing during a standard wellness screening is the first step in allergy therapy. Please book an appointment with our doctors as soon as possible if your pet is displaying indications of pain. Symptoms of an allergic response include:

  • scratching

  • shaking of the head

  • rubbing of the ears or muzzle

  • licking of the feet

  • raised circular lesions

  • generalized flakiness and hair loss

  • intense itching

How does allergy testing work?

We’re committed to assisting you in determining the source of your pet’s annoyance. We’ll suggest the best long-term therapy options for them to get back on track to a happy, healthy life. Veterinary allergy testing may be done in a number of methods, including food allergy testing using a hypoallergenic diet. These allergies can be diagnosed and treated in the hospital, or we can refer you to a dermatologist or other expert.

Allergy Types

Allergy to Bacteria

Some dogs might develop an allergic reaction to Staph germs that are naturally prevalent in the environment. The bacteria can enter the deeper layers of the skin in animals with weakened immune systems, causing pyoderma, a skin ailment.

Contact allergies are uncommon in dogs and cats. This sort of allergy is a localized response to a substance.
Allergy to Inhalants

The most frequent type of allergy encountered in pets is inhalant allergies, often known as atopy. Tree pollen, grass pollen, weed pollen, mold spores, and home dust mites can all cause allergic responses.
Allergies to foods

Food allergies take a long time to develop and might manifest as skin irritations or digestive difficulties.
