Skin Care for Pets in Elkhorn

Helping Your Pet Feel Comfortable in Their Skin

Your pet’s skin and coat aren’t just about appearances — they play a vital role in overall health. At Skyline Veterinary Clinic, we understand that skin issues can be frustrating for both pets and their owners. Our compassionate veterinary team is here to provide expert care for a range of dermatological conditions, ensuring your furry friend gets the relief they deserve. 

Understanding Skin Problems in Pets 

Pets can develop numerous skin concerns, some of which require specialized treatment. Here are a few common conditions we help manage: 

• Allergies: Whether caused by food, environment, or fleas, allergies often lead to itching, redness, and discomfort. 
• Infections: Bacterial, fungal, and yeast infections can result in inflamed, irritated skin. 
• Parasites: Fleas, ticks, and mites are not just pests — they can wreak havoc on your pet’s skin. 
• Hot Spots: These moist, irritated patches can quickly worsen without treatment. 
• Hair Loss and Coat Problems: Bald patches or changes in coat quality often signal an underlying issue. 
• Ear Infections: Recurring ear problems frequently stem from broader skin conditions or allergies. 
• Autoimmune Disorders: Rare but serious, these conditions require specialized diagnosis and care. 
• Lumps and Growths: Early evaluation of skin masses is crucial to ensure your pet’s health. 

Signs Your Pet May Need Dermatological Care 

If your pet is showing any of these signs, it might be time for a dermatology visit: 

• Constant scratching, licking, or biting 
• Red, irritated, or flaky skin 
• Unpleasant odors coming from the skin or ears

• Hair loss or changes in coat texture
