Scratching the Surface: Managing Seasonal Allergies

April 2026

Pollen season has arrived, and at City Animal Veterinary Center, we know that humans aren't the only ones feeling the itch. Your pet’s skin is the largest organ of their body, acting as a vital shield against the environment. However, when allergens peak, that shield can become compromised by irritation and inflammation.

Allergies, parasites, and infections can lead to chronic scratching, hair loss, and discomfort. Because skin issues can also mask deeper concerns like autoimmune diseases or cancers, professional intervention is key. We offer advanced diagnostic tools—including allergy testing, fungal cultures, and biopsies—to pinpoint the exact cause of your pet's distress.

Don’t let your furry friend suffer through "itchy season." With our cutting-edge treatments, City Animal Veterinary Center is dedicated to restoring your pet’s skin health and ensuring they are comfortable in their own coat.
