Allergies in Dogs and Cats
 
     Almost 1 out of 3 pets suffer from one or morer kind of allergy such as an Atopic allergy, and the incidence of allergy to some trees, plants and grass has doubled in recent years. At the same time, as more pets are sleeping indoors and in beds, many are becoming allergic to household dust and dust mites called Inhalent allergy. A simple washing of beds and vacuming of your carpet can reduce your pet's itching.    Allergies include seasonal allergies like Fleas allergy and Grass allergy or in some cases year round especially those associated with  indoor environment or with certain foods. Recent advances in flea control products such as Comfortis®, Advantix®, AdvantageMulti®, FrontlinePlus®, Revolution®, Promeris®, Sentinel®, have significantly flea allergy.   Please check Special Offers page on our Website for "Recession Specials" on above flea products this summer.  
     The Food Allergy is very common in pets with a variety of symptoms like itching, biting or chewing, hair loss, gas in bowels, diarrhea or  vomiting. Everything that itches is not always due to an allergy and neither does every allergy causes itching.  

    

To treat properly, an accurate diagnosis is very important and yes ...most of the allergies can be diagnosed. A thorough history of your pet's food, the environment, any presence or exposure to any fleas, mosquitoes or insects gives us some idea and can be evaluated by  allergy tests. Not only can we diagnose many allergies but also treat or manage very well t

o the pet's comfort and reduce itch for a "good night sleep". Many prescriptions like Atopica® by Novartis are  also available at our Hospital which can significantly reduce allergy symptoms and can even cure the allergic symptoms if taken on a regular and continuous basis.

      We at the Garfield Animal Hospital use Professional Laboratories for allergy testing and also refer complicated cases to a Dermatology Specialist for an answer, in case you opt so!  Please, call us at 562-630-2082 to schedule an appointment for your pet today if your pet is itching!
