Spring brings flowers and warmth.
But with all the benefits of the season, the terrible symptoms of allergies follow.
Everything seems to be covered with eye water, snot and a layer of yellow pollen.
It turns out that even pets are affected.
This year, veterinarians and pet owners noticed that their furry friends scratched and sneezed earlier than usual, corresponding to unusually warm weather.
\"I noticed a lot of changes,\" said Martha Grossman, owner of Lily, King Charles hound.
\"She had flea medications and other things, but she scratched more recently.
\"Dodge rolled a lot on the grass,\" said Diana Bataglia of the Boston terrier.
\"Much more than usual.
According to a veterinary dermatologist
Heather Peikes, a pet victim of an allergic constitution.
\"They even have the same symptoms,\" Peikes said . \".
Runny nose, itchy skin, ear infection.
\"While allergies affect people and animals every year, aspokesman Andy Mussoline of Accuweather says it happened earlier this year.
Oriental II-
People in the country\'s thirties are experiencing a particularly high amount of pollen, \"Mussoline said.
\"This is the result of a combination of factors.
Usually in the normal spring process, we will have a cold front through, and the wind will change.
Fresh air drains allergens.
But there are not many cold front passes now, causing the air to stagnate.
At the same time, very warm weather produced a lot of pollen earlier than usual.
\"For some pets, allergies are more than just a nuisance for many people.
\"His legs and ears are itching all the time,\" said Chris cobs of his three children --year-
Old Boston dog Wilbur.
\"He couldn\'t sleep many nights because he was itching all night.
I\'m taking him to the vet tomorrow. I feel so bad. \"Dr.
Peikes said that the treatment of pet allergies is also similar to that of humans.
\"Having an allergy test, an allergy lens, an air purifier, and even antihistine can help with pet allergies,\" she said . \".
But Peikes says always consult the vet before taking any action.
Some treatments may be safe for humans, but not safe for your pet.
