🐾 Did you know that your dog's itchiness could be caused by an overgrowth of normal bacteria or yeast on their skin?
This is just one of the top five reasons why your furry friend might be feeling uncomfortable and scratching all the time:
1 - Infections can lead to itching
2 - Anal gland disease can cause your dog to nibble, chew, or scoot their back end in irritation
3 - Parasites like fleas and mange mites are common culprits for sudden scratching
4 - Skin problems such as dry or greasy skin and hormone abnormalities can also trigger itchiness
5 - Allergies, including those related to fleas, the environment, or food, can be the most common long-term cause.
By identifying and addressing the root cause, you can provide targeted relief for your furry companion. 🐶
