Detect and effectively treat allergies in dogs and cats
Allergies in pets are becoming increasingly common and can severely impact the lives of dogs and cats. Allergies often lead to itching, skin problems, or digestive issues. Fortunately, there are now many options for targeted allergy treatment and significantly improving your pet's well-being. In this article, you'll learn how to recognize typical allergy symptoms and which measures can help sustainably relieve allergies in your four-legged friend.
1. What are pet allergies?
Allergies are overreactions of the immune system to otherwise harmless substances such as pollen, mites, food, or environmental pollutants. Dogs and cats can develop skin, respiratory, or food allergies. Typical symptoms include itching, redness, hair loss, dandruff, or even digestive problems.
2. Recognize typical symptoms
-
Constant scratching, biting or licking of the skin
-
Redness, skin inflammation or scaling
-
Hair loss and bald spots
-
Sneezing, coughing or difficulty breathing
-
Digestive problems such as diarrhea or vomiting
-
Restlessness and changed behavior
3. Treatment options for allergies
-
Allergen avoidance: For example, through hypoallergenic food or special cleaning measures against house dust mites.
-
Drug therapy: Antihistamines, cortisone or immunotherapy (desensitization) are often used to reduce symptoms.
-
Natural support: Products such as colostrum drops or Bach flower remedies can support skin and immune health and reduce stress.
-
Care: Regular bathing with special allergy shampoos soothes the skin and reduces inflammation.
-
Nutrition: A balanced, low-allergen diet supports skin health and strengthens the immune system.
4. Prevention and everyday tips

Keep your living environment clean and free of dust and pollen.
-
Observe any changes in your pet’s behavior or skin condition early on.
-
Make changes to your pet’s diet carefully and under veterinary supervision.
