Itch Season is Here: Support Your Dog with TurmerItch

Itch Season is Here: Support Your Dog with TurmerItch

As the weather warms up, many dogs start to scratch, nibble, or lick more than usual. Itch season is officially here—and for sensitive pups, it can mean weeks of discomfort if not managed early. At Chestnut Mill, we know how distressing itchy skin can be for both dogs and owners, so here’s what you need to know and how you can help.

Why Do Dogs Get Itchy in Summer?

Warmer weather brings a host of itch triggers:
  • Allergies: Pollen, grass seeds, and mould spores are all more prevalent in spring and summer.
  • Parasites: Fleas, ticks, and mites thrive in the warmer months.
  • Dry Skin: Increased bathing, swimming, or air conditioning can dry out your dog’s skin.
  • Insect Bites: Mosquitoes and other biting insects are more active.

Signs Your Dog Is Suffering

Look out for:
  • Constant scratching or licking
  • Red, inflamed, or flaky skin
  • Chewing at paws or tail
  • Hair loss or bald patches
  • Restlessness or irritability

What Can You Do? Practical Tips

  • Regular Grooming: Brush your dog often to remove pollen, loose hair, and dirt.
  • Wash Bedding: Keep your dog’s bed and favourite spots clean to reduce allergens.
  • Check for Parasites: Use a flea comb and keep up with regular parasite treatments.
  • Bathe Wisely: Use mild, dog-friendly shampoos and avoid over-bathing.
  • Wipe Down After Walks: A quick wipe with a damp cloth can remove pollen and irritants.
