Canine Skin Problems and enrofloxacin
One of the most common veterinarian complaints is irritated skin, which could be due to an allergic reaction or a skin infection.
Dogs react to allergens in a different way than humans; instead of nasal symptoms, dogs react with skin problems.
Pollen, dust, mold, shampoos, and carpet cleaners can all cause allergic reactions.
Indications that your dog might be experiencing a skin infection and/or an allergy are poor coat texture, itching, chewing, and hot spots.

Bacterial skin infections and hormonal skin diseases also affect the dog's skin.
Oral antibiotics and preparations can be used to control these conditions.
Veterinarian visits are in order if symptoms persist. See ringworm and fleas and ticks for more skin infections. Skin medications for dogs include cephalexin, clindamycin, and enrofloxacin.
