Dermatology Services

Our team is itching to help

Have you noticed your pet scratching, shedding, scooting, or excessively licking? Don’t worry, we can help you and your furry friend find relief! 2.4 million Canadian dogs suffer from dermatological issues that require a treatment plan from a veterinarian, and 6-15 percent of feline patients have at least one dermatopathy – so it’s smart to keep an eye on your pet’s skin.

Signs of dermatological problems include:

• Persistent scratching, biting, or licking
• Changes in coat quality (dull, greasy, patchy, or flaky)
• Unpleasant odour from fur
• Open sores, rashes, or swelling
• Discolouration of the skin

If you notice any unusual changes in your pet’s behaviour or appearance, reach out to us. At Banded Peak, we take a thorough approach to dermatology by consulting with you about your pet’s history and symptoms. 

Through allergy testing, bacterial cultures, biopsies, and other diagnostic tests, we can identify the root cause of the issue and create a customized treatment plan to help your pet feel comfortable again.
