Clear Skin, Happy Pets: Expert Allergy and Dermatology Care

Skin conditions and allergies can make pets uncomfortable, affecting their quality of life. At Locust Grove Veterinary Clinic, we provide comprehensive allergy and dermatology care for dogs and cats. Our goal is to identify the cause of your pet’s irritation and create effective, lasting treatment plans to restore comfort and healthy skin.

Signs that your pet’s skin problems need veterinary attention include:

  • Excessive scratching, licking, or biting
  • Red, inflamed, or irritated skin
  • Recurrent ear infections
  • Hot spots or hair loss
  • Scaly or flaky skin

Dermatology Care Matters for Your Pet’s Wellbeing

Untreated skin problems can cause pain, infections, and secondary health issues. Early evaluation helps reduce discomfort, improve coat health, and prevent long-term complications. Our team uses a combination of diagnostics and allergy testing to target the root cause, not just the symptoms. Treatments may include allergy testing and management, prescription medications and topical therapies, nutritional guidance for sensitive skin, flea and parasite control, and preventive strategies to reduce flare-ups.

Skin Conditions We Treat:

  • Environmental allergies (pollen, dust, mold)
  • Food allergies and sensitivities
  • Flea allergy dermatitis
  • Chronic ear infections
  • Skin infections, hotspots, and more

We also offer cryosurgery with Cryoprobe to freeze small skin warts, nodules, and skin tags without the need for general anesthesia. Cryosurgery with a Cryoprobe uses extreme cold—typically liquid nitrogen—to freeze and remove small skin growths. The freezing destroys the abnormal cells while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue.
