All my friends with pets, I have a question: if your pet has these symptoms, what can I give her to help reduce the irritation... Atopy is the most common form of allergy in dogs and cats. Atopy is often seasonal. If a pet is allergic to ragweed, symptoms occur in the fall. Pets who are allergic to spring tree pollen will show signs in April and May. If a pet is allergic to dust mites, the symptoms may be most dramatic in the winter, when more time is spent inside. Signs of atopy include: Chewing at the feet Constant licking of the flank (side) and groin area Rubbing of the face Inflamed ears or recurrent ear infections Recurrent hot spots in dogs and pinpoint facial scabbing in cats Asthma-like wheezing and respiratory problems (more likely in cats)
