This is due to environmental changes in temperature causing bacterial infections and spring flora presenting dogs with skin allergies. If your dog is scratching check for a few symptoms;

  • Is the skin reddened?
  • Are there red moist areas between toes and pads?
  • Are there any boarders in his fur such as fleas? - generally seen on the base of the tail.
  • Is your dog constantly itching ears, muzzle and under carriage?

If your dog shows any of these symptoms contact the Companion Animal Health Centre for advice or book a consultation with a veterinarian.
