Hot spot alert -- summer is here and so are skin flare-ups!
Dog hot spots (Acute Moist Dermatitis) can appear overnight and spread fast in Georgia's summer heat and humidity. The good news? Most hot spots are PREVENTABLE with the right grooming care.
5 prevention strategies for Dunwoody and Sandy Springs pet owners:
- Regular professional grooming (keeps coat dry and mat-free)
- Thorough drying after every swim or bath
- Year-round flea prevention (top trigger for hot spots)
- Brushing 2-3x per week between appointments
- Watch for early signs -- redness, moisture, excessive licking
