Hot spots, itchy skin, hair loss, and recurring infections are miserable for your dog. ARCH Veterinary in San Jose provides same-day skin diagnostics — skin cytology, allergy testing, and targeted treatment — open 8 AM – 10 PM daily. San Jose's microclimates throw a curveball at allergy dogs — fog-belt mornings in Cambrian, dry afternoons closer to Evergreen, and pollen counts that don't follow the same calendar as elsewhere in California. The result is a year-round itch season instead of a defined spring peak. We treat the infection in front of us, but we also try to figure out why your dog keeps coming back. Skin cytology, ear cytology, and a thoughtful conversation about food and environment usually narrows the cause within one or two visits — without committing you to a lifetime of medicated baths.
