Constant scratching, licking, or ear infections can be signs that your pet is suffering from allergies. Just like humans, pets can be allergic to a variety of triggers, including certain proteins in their healthy meals, pollen, dust mites, or flea bites. At WellPet, our specialized allergy treatment program is designed to accurately identify the cause of your pet’s discomfort and provide effective, long-term relief.
Our diagnostic process for allergy treatment begins with a thorough examination to rule out other causes of skin irritation. We may recommend tests, such as skin scrapings or blood tests performed in our in-house lab, to pinpoint the specific allergens. Treatment options are tailored to your pet’s needs and may include hypoallergenic diet trials, medications to control itching and inflammation, allergy shots (immunotherapy), or strict flea control programs. Our approach is holistic, aiming not just to suppress symptoms but to manage the underlying allergy.
Effective allergy treatment can dramatically improve your pet’s quality of life, stopping the itch-scratch cycle that leads to skin damage and secondary infections. It requires patience and partnership between our veterinary service team and you, the pet owner. If your pet is showing signs of allergies, don’t wait for the problem to worsen. Contact WellPet today to schedule an allergy treatment consultation and help your pet find comfort again.
