Healthy Skin and Coat in Humid Weather

Oct 6
1 min read

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.

Blue Cross Vets Clinic, G Block 115/116, Sector 12, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai, is open every day from 10am to 7pm. WhatsApp us at +91 81690 67671 to book an appointment.
