Dogs are more likely than cats to sniff out, lick, and even eat mold, but that doesn't mean they're the only pets who risk harm from mold exposure. Atopic allergies occur when your pet inhales the specific allergen(s) responsible for their allergies. Read more for symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of pet allergies to mold.
