According to a story By Dr. Jessica Vogelsang for Tulsa's Channel 6, allergies are one of the leading causes of vet visits, by pet owners. She cites flea, environmental and food allergies as the three most common allergies that dogs experience.
Vogelsang states that environmental allergies are the most common, but can sometimes be treated with topical ointments. At Kelly's Dazzle Dog Dog Grooming Spa, we offer several hypoallergenic solutions for your dog.
