Seasonal is true for my boy. Every year around September I get sneezy and he gets itchy. I don't regulary bathe him because , well he is a cat and good at keeping up on his grooming, but at this time of year he get's a couple baths to help sooth his skin. I do always use a cat shampoo and it does help. Perfect timing for this vid since the season is changing 👍💖
I find it very interesting that you both experience symptoms with the change of the season! I hope that both of your symptoms are mild and short lived 💜
Where were you when my dog needed you? (You were in school, most likely.) He was a rescue golden who developed horrific skin lesions later in life. So many times I brought him to my vet at the time, and every time I was told that it was just hot spots, keep them clean and don't let him chew. I don't know if I had a terrible vet, or if concern with atopic dermatitis is a newer thing, but either way I'm glad you're educating people on this. Here's hoping fewer pets have to go through what my dog did before I found the things that helped him.
I'm so sorry you and your dog went through all of that, it's absolutely awful and so frustrating!!! A huge reason why I make these is so that everyone has free access to research based, best practices info in order to help people advocate for their pets. I truly help it does help some animals out there 🤞
Obviously youre not my vet but our vet had told us its very uncommon for dogs to get allergies under 2, but the list here says its likely if the onset was under 3. Is the window for onset only between 2-3 years?
I'm also curious as to what they consider as primarily inside lifestyle? Does this just mean a dog who like sleeps inside and is a family pet vs a working farm dog?
Dogs who are young adults are going to be the most likely to start showing allergy symptoms for the first time. It's possible for a dog who is still a puppy to have them, and it's possible for a dog older than 3 to have them, it's just less likely. Yes, they would be meaning more of an average pet dog vs more of a working dog. I'm so glad you asked these questions to clarify! Thank you!
@@VetMedCorner thank you! I'm always trying to be the best dog owner I can be for my girl now and any future dogs I have and I learn so much from your videos even though I'm always late 😂
Yes, they absolutely can! I'm so sorry to hear that you also deal with it, I'm not familiar with how atopic dermatitis goes in the human species but imagine the treatment options are going to have some differences? I hope that yours is well managed with minimal flare ups of symptoms 💜

Never a worry! I think you're perfectly on time, and I always enjoy hearing your questions.
I have atopic dermatitis, I didn’t know pets can have it too 😭 💔
