Allergy & Dermatology Care for Troy Pets

Allergies are not just a problem for our pets. Since our dogs and cats can’t verbally tell us when something is wrong, it’s up to us to spot the signs of allergy and dermatology problems.

Getting to the root cause of these types of issues can be difficult, but the team at PVS - Troy works closely with clients and fosters an open line of communication to find the cause and treat it accordingly. If your pets have allergies, we are here to help.

Allergies in animals have particular side effects that can make your pet’s life pretty miserable without the proper treatment. These include:

  • Itchiness
  • Infections in the ears or eyes
  • Excessive licking of the paws
  • Vomiting or diarrhea
  • Hair Loss and Hot Spots

Diagnosing your pet’s specific issue allows us to determine the best course of treatment.

Dermatology Care for Troy Pets

Some pets have skin issues that have nothing to do with allergies. Since the skin is the largest organ in the body, any dermatological issues can cause serious discomfort for pets.

Some of the most common causes of dermatology issues in pets are:

  • Allergies
  • External parasites
  • Infections
  • Autoimmune diseases
  • Cancers

If you think your pet is suffering from skin issues, schedule an appointment with your trusted PVS - Troy team. Our veterinary staff will get to the root of the problem so your pet can go back to a life without skin problems.
