Your pet may be suffering from a skin condition if you notice:
Persistent scratching or chewing
Red, inflamed, or flaky skin
Hair loss or bald spots
Hot spots or open sores
Ear infections or head shaking
Bad odor from skin or ears
Licking paws excessively
Scooting or skin discoloration
These symptoms can be caused by allergies, parasites, infections, or underlying conditions — and we’re here to help you figure it out.
Our basic dermatology and allergy services include:
Thorough skin and ear exams
Skin scraping or cytology to check for mites, yeast, or bacteria
External parasite checks (fleas, ticks, mites)
Fungal and bacterial cultures
Trial treatments for food or environmental allergies
Recommendations for further testing or referral if needed
In some cases, we may refer you to a board-certified veterinary dermatologist for advanced allergy testing or immunotherapy.
Once we identify what’s bothering your pet, we create a treatment plan tailored to their specific condition. This may include:
Medicated shampoos or topical treatments
Oral or injectable anti-itch medications
Antibiotics or antifungals
Ear drops or cleansers
Diet changes or elimination trials
Flea and parasite prevention
Our goal: to stop the itch and heal the skin — so your pet can feel like themselves again.
