In dogs when they have an allergy, usually the reaction will be in the skin. Allergic reactions will cause a dog to itch and hence scratch, and often lick.

Unlike humans, dogs rarely get allergy symptoms in the nose and respiratory system.

Allergies are quite common in dogs. It is estimated that one in seven dogs has some form of allergy.
