Each plan can be unique depending on the case presentation, client's goals, etc. Check out this week's episode of The Derm Vet podcast where I discuss sh...

269. When to suspect pemphigus in dogs and cats

In dogs, honey colored adherent crusting, facial lesions, nasal planum involvement and crust paw pads can occur with PF. In cats, purulent debris at the claw folds, crusting/erythema around th...

Learn about three different ways on this week's episode of The Derm Vet podcast! 1. Topicals 2. Nutrition 3. Supplements TI...

It is the dreaded conversation in the exam room... when the owner brings up what they heard from a friend, the internet, a social media group, etc. You have to control the eye roll or being super defensive because you want to the the only trusted source for medical decisions for the pet.
