What can you do to help your pet fight seasonal allergies? There are steps you can take to help alleviate your pet's allergy symptoms:

  • Keep your pet indoors more during peak pollen times,
  • Wipe your pet's paws and coat after outdoor walks to remove pollen,
  • Vacuum and dust your home regularly to reduce indoor allergens,
  • Consider using air purifiers or allergy-friendly bedding for your pet,
  • Ask your vet if your pet would benefit from an over-the-counter antihistamine,
  • Some pets may need prescription medications. If you think that is the case, please call the office to discuss options available to your pet.
