Pet Dermatology in Peyton, CO

Welcome to Falcon Family Vet, where our veterinary team helps pets in Peyton, Falcon, and the surrounding areas find relief from itchy, uncomfortable skin and ear problems.

Understanding Pet Skin Conditions

Skin and ear problems are among the most common reasons pets visit the veterinarian. Itching, redness, hair loss, and recurring ear infections can have many causes, including allergies, parasites, bacterial or yeast infections, and hormonal conditions.

Because so many conditions look alike, finding the underlying cause is the key to lasting relief. Our veterinarians take a thorough approach to diagnose the problem and create a treatment plan that fits your pet.

What to Expect: Dermatology Visits at Falcon Family Vet

We focus on finding the cause of your pet’s skin problem, not just treating the symptoms.

History and Exam

We ask about your pet’s symptoms, diet, environment, and parasite prevention, and examine the skin, coat, and ears.

Skin and Ear Testing

Tests such as skin scrapings and skin and ear cytology help us identify parasites, bacteria, and yeast.

Treatment Plan

We recommend treatment such as medications, medicated shampoos, or ear care. If allergies are suspected, we may recommend allergy testing.

Follow-Up

Recheck visits help us make sure the treatment is working and adjust the plan as needed.

Why Dermatology Care Is Important for Your Pet

Skin problems can make pets miserable, and they often get worse without treatment.

Relieves Itching and Discomfort

Targeted treatment helps your pet feel comfortable again.

Clears Infections

Treating skin and ear infections prevents them from spreading or becoming chronic.
