Pets Have Seasonal Allergies Too, Like Itchy Paws and Watery Eyes

Have you ever had your dog get irritated red paws after running around in the grass outside, or has your cat recently developed a rash?

One study from 2018 found that in the past decade, cases of environmental allergies have risen by 30.7 percent in dogs and 11.5 percent in cats.

Like humans, our pets can also get runny, sneezy noses and itchy skin during allergy seasons. Most allergy spikes coincide with the changing seasons in the spring and Fall, but changes in food and using specific types of cleaning solutions can also cause some reactions.
