Listen "Bite Size: Itchy Scratchy Hot Spots "
Episode Synopsis
In this Bite Size episode Dr Steph does a deep dive on Hot Spots.
Hot Spots are sometimes called acute moist dermatitis, or they are sometimes called pyotraumatic dermatitis and it's basically where your dog just gets so frantic they cause self trauma in the affected area. So they're just literally tearing themselves apart. Something that is so itchy, they just can't deal with it.
Dr Steph helps us diagnose hot spots and also treat them.
