Cats and dogs are very different with their skin lesions and distribution is no different. If a dog presents with claw fold disease, the list of differentials is much better than a cat with claw fold skin disease. Throw in oral lesions and otitis... and we have to recognize how there are differences in how we create differential lists.

I asked and you delivered!!!! I wanted to know what general practitioners wish dermatologists knew before they referred a case. You gave me lots of great points!
A recurring theme in my responses... write it down! If an owner declines a diagnostic, medication, referral, flea prevention, etc. make sure you write it in the record. If it is there, then we will know the recommendation was made. We all want to be on the same team with these chronic derm cases! Check out this week's episode of The Derm Vet podcast.

06:35 "I legit try to get my clients to go to you sooner"
08:42 "I have tried to get them on consistent vet-prescribed flea control"

Depending on where you live geographically, you may see a lot of deep fungal disease or not much at all. How do you recognize deep fungal disease? What diagnostics can be done?
Even if you don't see a lot of deep fungal disease where you live, dogs and cats change environments so it could happen! Learn about blastomycosis, coccidiomycosis, cryptococcus, sporotrichosis and histoplasmosis on this week's episode of The Derm Vet podcast.

Isoxazolines are anti-parasitics that inhibit chloride channels in the nervous systems of invertebrates. This paralyzes and kills parasites by blocking the transmission of neuronal signals.
Isoxazolines are more selective to fleas, ticks, and mites than to mammals, including humans, dogs and cats. It has been a game changer for our flea allergic pets and treating mange cases.
Learn some of the specific differences of these products on this week's episode of The Derm Vet podcast!

Thanks to the isoxazolines... we don't see demodex as much as we used to! However, it is still a disease that can be overlooked and important to recognize and treat. But when treatment can range from nothing to an anti-parasitic... how do you approach these canine cases?
Localized vs. Generalized
Juvenile-onset vs. Adult-onset

No doubt that bacteria keep getting smarter and smarter... recently, I had a culture come back from a superficial pyoderma with NO ANTIBIOTIC OPTIONS! So we have to pivot and consider options such as dilute bleach rinses.

Phovia is an innovative form of photobiomodulation that is easy to use in a veterinary clinical practice and can have several benefits (antibacterial, wound healing, etc.). It is easy to use and fast!
But, what kind of cases could benefit from this technology? Would it be common to use on a daily basis in general practice? Check out how common Phovia can be used in a general practice. From acral licks, post-surgical incision and deep pyoderma, the common opportunities are endless!

I welcome back Dr. Galia Scheinberg on the podcast this week! Dr. Scheinberg has a lot of experience using the Vetbiotek products which contains MicroSilver. How is this ingredient compared to other silver containing products?
Microsilver has a larger surface area, allowing for more positive ions to be released and for longer periods of time. Also, microsilver clings to the fur and skin, for prolonged contact without any systemic absorption.

Otitis media is a middle ear infection and can occur due to many different primary diseases. Ideally, these cases receive advanced imaging with CT or MRI, undergo video-otoscopy with myringotomy, submit a C/S and receive several weeks of appropriate antimicrobial systemic treatment.

Cutaneous lymphoma can be a tricky disease. It is red, flaky and itchy just like allergies can be. If you see an older dog with these lesions, it should be a differential. But, what do you do if you get back a biopsy of cutaneous lymphoma? What if you can't refer the case to an oncologist?
Today's post welcomes Rachel Venable, DVM, MS, DACVIM (oncology) to discuss this disease and what you can do to manage them.

Wounds can be tough, but there is a new product to help with that. KeraVet Gel is a hydrogel wound dressing intended to act as a protective covering for partial thickness wounds. It is the first veterinary product to include keratin as an ingredient based on human-grade products. Additionally, it contains the most bitter lick deterrent available on the market to discourage pets from traumatizing the area. Wouldn't it be great to get rid of E-collars?
Today, we welcome Cherice Roth, DVM (lead medical advisor for KeraVet bio) to discuss the benefits of this product for dogs and cats. Also, how to best implement it into your daily clinical practice. - Visa fler
