Fall Allergies & Your Petās Skin: What to Watch For šš¾

Ā
As the air turns crisp and heaters kick on, pets feel the seasonās shift too. Dry air, ragweed, and mold can leave dogs and cats scratching more thanĀ usual.
Signs to Look For
- Itchy, flaky skin that wasnāt there in summer
- Paw chewing or licking after walks through leaves
- Watery eyes or ear scratching when allergens are high
- Dry noses and paw pads from cooler winds
- Head shaking or ear irritation that may point to allergy-related ear issues
If this sounds very familiar, your pet may be dealing with fall allergiesānot just āseasonal change.ā
