Gail Friedman's Parson Russell Terrier, Mr. Friedman, suffered from allergies, prompting her to seek veterinary care. Allergies in pets, caused by various environmental triggers like pollen and chemicals, are becoming more prevalent. Dr. Karen Woodard notes that approximately 90% of allergic pets are affected by environmental factors. Certain dog and cat breeds are more susceptible to allergies, and pets may even be allergic to each others' presence. Symptoms include excessive scratching rather than sneezing and coughing as seen in humans, posing a challenge in identification and treatment.
I probably see allergic dogs and cats every single day, probably multiple times a day.' This highlights the prevalence of allergies in pets today.
About 90% of allergic pets react to environmental triggers, and the rest have food allergies only.
Pets can even be allergic to other animals and vice versa; it's possible for them to be allergic to us, just like we are to them.
