Strong Skin Happy Pets 4: Barrier Boost for Itchy Dogs
In this final episode of the Strong Skin Happy Pets series, sponsored by Dechra, we focus on the practical tools veterinarians use to repair and maintain the skin barrier in allergic pets. Dr. Lancellotti and Dr. Mesman break down how to choose effective barrier repair products, what ingredients actually matter, and how to build a realistic at-home routine. They also address common concerns about topical therapy, including time, mess, and pet compliance. This episode emphasizes that long-term success comes from consistency, customization, and focusing on prevention, not just treatment of allergy flares.
