Pets are suffering through spring allergies too
Seasonal allergies aren’t just hitting people this spring — millions of pets are struggling as well. Veterinarians report that dogs like Penny, a seven‑year‑old pit bull mix, often show allergy symptoms through excessive paw‑licking, scratching, and mouth irritation. Environmental triggers such as pollen can cause significant discomfort, and owners are encouraged to watch for behavioral changes that signal itching or inflammation.
