Veterinarians in Hong Kong are all too familiar with itchy dogs, especially in summer. However, when a dog presents with multiple problems, it can be difficult to manage. How do we identify the primary issue? How long do we treat for? Are there any new medications that can improve treatment outcome? How can we ensure client compliance?

Using examples of cases seen at CityU-PAVC and other clinics, Dr Stefan Hobi will walk us through the management of seemingly simple skin ailments.
