🐾 August is Itchy Pet Awareness Month! 🐾
Is your pet constantly scratching, licking their paws, shaking their head or suffering from recurring ear infections? Itchy skin isn’t just annoying – it can be a sign of an underlying allergy or skin condition.
At Vets for Pets Aberdeen, our Practice Owner and Clinical Director, Dr Mik Hohensee, has a particular interest in dermatology and offers advanced investigations, including intradermal allergy skin testing, to help get to the root of your pet’s itch.
Don’t let your pet suffer in silence – if they’re showing signs of persistent itching, book an appointment with our team and let’s help them feel comfortable again. 💚
Common signs to look out for include:
🐶 Excessive scratching or biting
🐾 Licking or chewing paws
👂 Recurring ear infections
🩹 Red, sore or inflamed skin
🪮 Hair loss or bald patches
🤢 An unpleasant skin odour
