The early signs of allergic skin disease can often be overlooked which leads to progression of symptoms and the development of secondary complications like skin infections.
Common early symptoms include:
- Scratching
- Redness
- Shaking head
- Licking feet
- Biting skin and fur
- Rubbing along the ground or other surfaces
Recognising these signs and taking your pet to the vet will allow for treatment and management to be implemented early, providing your pet with relief and reducing the risk of secondary complications occurring.
If you are concerned your pet may be suffering from allergies, contact your veterinarian today.
