Healthy Skin and Coat in Humid Weather
Warm, humid weather is ideal for bacteria, yeast and fungus. That is why skin problems are among the most common reasons pets visit us in Navi Mumbai.
Common problems
Hot spots: red, moist, painful patches that spread fast
Fungal and yeast infections, often between toes and in skin folds
Ear infections, especially in dogs with floppy ears
Flea and tick allergies
Prevention tips
Brush your pet regularly to remove dead hair and let the skin breathe
Dry your pet completely after baths and walks, including ears and paws
Bathe only as often as your vet advises, with a pet shampoo
Keep flea and tick prevention up to date
Do not shave double-coated breeds to the skin, as the coat protects against sun and heat
When to see a vet
Visit us if your pet scratches constantly, has hair loss, a bad smell, red skin or shakes its head often. Skin problems are easier to treat when caught early.
