Mosquitoes, fleas, ticks, allergies and other parasites are more present than ever with the arrival of spring, a time when their population increases and their bites generate discomfort and can transmit serious diseases such as leishmaniasis and dirofilariasis.
Dogs, like humans, also suffer from spring allergies. As a result of climate change, high pollen counts and grass outbreaks, furry dogs can suffer from different symptoms. Routines change at this time of the year: trips to the countryside and walks are prolonged, so pay attention if your pet shows any of the following symptoms:
- Intense itching
- Congested tear ducts
- Distemper
- Sneezing
- Frequent ear twitching
- Frequent licking of paws due to skin lesion (pruritus)
- Reddened skin
Most of the veterinary consultations in spring are due to dermatological problems, whose origin in most cases can be allergic. In these cases we should go to the veterinary clinic to perform the necessary tests and assign an appropriate treatment to combat the allergy in case it is detected.
