Relief for Itchy Skin, Allergies, and More

Is your pet constantly scratching, licking, or shaking their head? Skin and ear issues are among the most common reasons pets visit the vet—and they can seriously impact your pet’s comfort and quality of life. At Cumberland Animal Hospital, we offer advanced dermatology services to diagnose and treat a wide range of skin, coat, and allergy conditions in dogs and cats.

Common Signs of Skin Problems in Pets

Skin issues often go beyond surface-level irritation. They can signal allergies, infections, parasites, or underlying medical conditions. Early diagnosis is key to getting your pet relief and preventing chronic flare-ups.

We treat pets experiencing:

• Itching or excessive scratching
• Hair loss or thinning
• Red, inflamed, or flaky skin
• Hot spots or open sores
• Ear infections or frequent head shaking
• Chewing or licking paws
• Rashes, scabs, or unusual bumps
• Odor coming from the skin or ears

Comprehensive Skin and Allergy Care

Our team uses a combination of physical exams, skin scrapings, cytology, allergy testing, and lab diagnostics to uncover the root cause of your pet’s symptoms. Once we know what’s behind the discomfort, we can develop a treatment plan tailored to their needs.

Dermatology services may include:

• Allergy testing and management
• Topical and oral medications
• Medicated shampoos or wipes
• Ear cleaning and treatment
• Parasite prevention
• Dietary recommendations for food sensitivities

Don’t Let Skin Issues Go Untreated

Chronic skin conditions can lead to infections, discomfort, and even behavioral changes. The good news? Most are treatable—and many can be managed with the right long-term plan.
