In atopic dogs, their skin barrier is defective and this allows the allergens to penetrate deeper into the skin resulting in itching and irritated skin. Infections with yeast and bacteria commonly occur since the skin barrier cannot defend against them as they should normally. This can be seasonal or year-round.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch2 id=\"why-did-my-dog-develop-atopy\">Why Did My Dog Develop Atopy?\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cp>Genetics, environmental exposures, and certain breeds are more predisposed.

The intradermal skin test is considered more reliable; however, this often requires referral to a specialist, sedation, and shaving a large area of fur for the injections to be administered.

Our vets are here to help with all your pet health questions and symptoms, such as vomiting, diarrhoea, skin problems, first aid, nutrition and behaviour. If your pet needs to visit a vet clinic for an examination or treatment, then you will be directed to your registered vet. If you do not have a registered practice, our vets will help you to find your nearest open veterinary clinic.\",\"email\":\"support-us@firstvet.com\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"height\":\"171\",\"url\":\"https:\u002F\u002Fcms.firstvet.com\u002Fuploaded\u002Fimages\u002Farticles\u002FFV_Logo_Blue.png\",\"width\":\"772\"},\"logo\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"height\":\"60\",\"url\":\"https:\u002F\u002Fcms.firstvet.com\u002Fuploaded\u002Fimages\u002Farticles\u002F_600x60_fit_center-center_82_none\u002FFV_Logo_Blue.png?mtime=1635160737\",\"width\":\"271\"},\"name\":\"FirstVet\",\"sameAs\":[\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.facebook.com\u002Ffirstvetunitedstates\",\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.instagram.com\u002Ffirstvet\u002F\"],\"telephone\":\"+13127576146\"},{\"@context\":\"http:\u002F\u002Fschema.org\",\"@id\":\"#creator\",\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-us\"},{\"@context\":\"http:\u002F\u002Fschema.org\",\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"description\":\"Breadcrumbs list\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"item\":\"https:\u002F\u002Ffirstvet.com\u002Fus\",\"name\":\"Homepage\",\"position\":1},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"item\":\"https:\u002F\u002Ffirstvet.com\u002Fus\u002Farticles\",\"name\":\"Articles\",\"position\":2},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"item\":\"https:\u002F\u002Ffirstvet.com\u002Fus\u002Farticles\u002Fdiagnosing-and-treating-environmental-allergies-in-dogs\",\"name\":\"Diagnosing and Treating Environmental Allergies in Dogs\",\"position\":3}],\"name\":\"Breadcrumbs\"}]}",4,{"appLinks":338,"callToActionTop":357,"callToAction":371},{"id":339,"name":340,"linkWithImage":341},"45","App Links",[342,351],{"id":343,"linkTo":344,"appType":345,"image":346,"downloadMessage":349,"appDescription":350},"113244","https:\u002F\u002Fapp.adjust.com\u002F2s56icq","ios",[347],{"url":348},"https:\u002F\u002Fcms.firstvet.com\u002Fuploaded\u002Fimages\u002Fmisc\u002Fdownload-app-store.png","Low cost consultations, 24 hours a day.","Download for free",{"id":352,"linkTo":344,"appType":353,"image":354,"downloadMessage":349,"appDescription":350},"113245","android",[355],{"url":356},"https:\u002F\u002Fcms.firstvet.com\u002Fuploaded\u002Fimages\u002Fmisc\u002Fdownload-google-play.png",{"heading":358,"content":359,"icon":360,"anchorText":368,"urlTarget":369,"enableDownloadIcons":370},"Are you concerned about your pet?","\u003Cp>Book a video consultation with an experienced veterinarian within minutes.\u003Cbr \u002F>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cul>\u003Cli>Professional vet advice online\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli>Low-cost video vet consultations\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli>Open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year\u003C\u002Fli>\u003C\u002Ful>",{"inlineSvg":361},{"inner":362,"attr":363},"\n\u003Cpath d=\"M11 10.5C11 11.605 10.105 12.5 9.00003 12.5C7.89503 12.5 7.00003 11.605 7.00003 10.5C7.00003 9.395 7.89503 8.5 9.00003 8.5C10.105 8.5 11 9.395 11 10.5ZM21.235 17.585C21.025 19.47 19.54 20.995 17.65 21.215C16.02 21.405 14.385 21.5 12.75 21.5H11.25C9.61503 21.5 7.98003 21.405 6.35503 21.215C4.46003 20.995 2.98003 19.47 2.77003 17.585C2.41503 14.4 2.41503 11.105 2.77003 7.915C2.98003 6.03 4.46503 4.505 6.35503 4.285C6.73503 4.24 7.12003 4.2 7.50003 4.17V1.5H9.00003V4.065C9.75003 4.02 10.5 4 11.25 4H12.75C13.5 4 14.25 4.02 15 4.065V1.5H16.5V4.17C16.885 4.205 17.265 4.245 17.645 4.285C19.54 4.505 21.02 6.03 21.23 7.915C21.59 11.105 21.59 14.395 21.235 17.585ZM19.745 8.08C19.61 6.88 18.655 5.91 17.475 5.775C15.91 5.595 14.325 5.5 12.75 5.5H11.25C9.67503 5.5 8.09003 5.595 6.52503 5.775C5.34503 5.915 4.39003 6.885 4.25503 8.08C3.91003 11.18 3.91003 14.32 4.25503 17.415C4.39003 18.615 5.34503 19.585 6.52503 19.72C8.08503 19.905 9.67503 19.995 11.25 19.995H12.75C14.32 19.995 15.91 19.9 17.475 19.72C18.655 19.58 19.61 18.61 19.745 17.415C20.09 14.32 20.09 11.18 19.745 8.08Z\" fill=\"#110F0E\" fill-opacity=\"0.54\">\u003C\u002Fpath>\n",{"width":364,"height":364,"viewBox":365,"fill":366,"xmlns":367},"24","0 0 24 24","none","http:\u002F\u002Fwww.w3.org\u002F2000\u002Fsvg","Book Video Consultation","https:\u002F\u002Fget-started.firstvet.com\u002Fus\u002Fsubscription-select",false,{"content":372,"icon":373,"anchorText":376,"urlTarget":377,"sellingpoints":378},"\u003Ch2>Are you concerned about your pet?
