If your dog scratches like it\u2019s their full-time job, it might be time for an allergy check. French Bulldogs are prone to skin allergies and to solve them, you must first determine the cause. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are the 5 most common causes of French Bulldog skin allergies! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Environmental Allergens<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Did you know that allergies are more common in urban environments<\/a> in both dogs and their humans? The interesting part is that allergic dogs are more likely to have allergic owners than healthy dogs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Environmental allergens like pollen, dust mites, and mold are common allergic triggers in Frenchies. The symptoms include seasonal scratching, inflamed skin, patches without fur, and even watery eyes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To help your dog deal with these allergens, you must keep hygienic measures at high levels by cleaning the dog\u2019s bedding and living area. Also, by using our pet smart collar<\/a>, you can check the mobile app and get notified about the itching frequency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Food Allergies<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Although it seems harmless and necessary for living, food can be a trigger factor for many health issues including food allergies and canine atopic dermatitis. This can also escalate in other clinical signs like urticaria, recurrent pyoderma, and dorsolumbar pruritis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a study<\/a>, dietary management in addressing food allergies is essential. The best way to do this is by implementing elimination diets to identify specific allergens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

French Bulldog food allergies are common, and they might be allergic to proteins like chicken, beef, or certain grains. The most common symptoms in dogs include chronic ear infections, diarrhea, and red, itchy skin. To solve this issue, we as veterinarians recommend you to use an elimination diet to identify the specific trigger. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
