SEVERAL FACTORS CAUSE SKIN PROBLEMS IN PETS

Pets, like people, can develop irritating and painful skin conditions. While feeding your pet a good food and keeping them clean can help prevent skin problems, sometimes even the most basic skin care program isn’t enough to keep your cat or dog free of skin problems.

Excessive scratching, biting, licking, or chewing of fur and skin, as well as shaking the head repeatedly, are the most prevalent signs of a dermatological disease in pets. A bad odor emanating from the skin or ears, hair loss, dandruff, lumps, or a change in the color or texture of your pet’s skin or fur are all signs of skin disorders. We offer:
