Many people view their dogs as no different than their human children.
That includes treating medical concerns like allergies.
Many dog owners aren’t aware of just how common dog allergies are (viaVeterinary Centers of America).

All these factors can cause a dog’s skin to itch and become red, inflamed, and scabbed.
Truefood allergies in dogsare typically uncommon and can range from facial swelling to vomiting and anaphylaxis in severe cases.
Like people, dogs can go into anaphylactic shock in severe cases.

So, how do you treat dog allergies?
If your dog has a mild reaction to his food, change his diet.
However,some pet allergies can be more seriousand require immediate veterinary care.

Remember, it’s better to be safe than sorry!
