The Pet Doctor - Episode 219 Scratching Deep into Pet Allergies

Author: Pet Life Radio October 3, 2015 Duration: 33:57
I can always tell the owner of the incessantly scratching pet as they wait in my reception area. I don’t even have to see their pet. The signs are unmistakable... the haggard look, the bags under their eyes, the tinge of irritability from lack of sleep and their furrowed brow from worrying about their dog or cat.

Itching, biting, scratching, chewing and just plain futzing with themselves can drive a pet and their owner crazy. What are some of the most common causes of these skin issues and what can a pet parent do? My guest is a board certified veterinary dermatologist, Dr. Ursula Thomas. Dr. Thomas is also a veterinary service manager, for Ceva Animal Health.
