What Is Lameness? How We Can Help

If your pet loses the ability to use one of his limbs, it greatly limits his mobility. This condition is known as lameness and includes a multitude of causes and factors. Injuries, infections, bone diseases, joint disorders, and accidents are just some of the events that can hurt your pet. We can help diagnose the source of lameness based on physical examination and testing and then help provide treatment.

Rashes and Skin Irritation

Skin conditions are common in dogs and cats. Sometimes they go away on their own. Other times, they become chronic.

There are different parasites, fungi, bacteria, and allergies that can cause chronic skin conditions and getting treatment may be the only way to help your pet get relief. A veterinarian on our team can give your pet something to alleviate the symptoms of rashes and irritation. Additionally, we'll do what we can to help you determine the cause to prevent reoccurrence. Oral medications, shampoos and other products may be able help your cat or dog remain more comfortable.

Food Allergies in Pets

Just like people, animals can develop allergies to certain foods. If your pet ingests food that he’s allergic to, he can develop skin irritation, digestive problems, and respiratory issues. By the process of elimination, you and a vet on our team can help track down the source of the allergic reaction.

Other Pet Allergies

Even if your pet doesn't show signs of allergic reactions as a baby, he can develop allergies that worsen over time. Flea saliva, pollen, and dust are just a few of the triggers that can cause a sneezing or coughing fit. Other signs of allergies include swelling, hives, and vomiting. The good news is that a veterinarian on our veterinary team can help your pet get relief.
