Overall, participation in the conference became a valuable experience and inspired further cooperation with the university. It is a pleasure to be part of a community shaping the future of veterinary medicine in Ukraine.”

We believe that such events are an important step toward strengthening cooperation between education, science, and business and contribute to the implementation of modern solutions in veterinary practice.

As warm spring days come, many owners and their pets enjoy long walks in the fresh air. But for some dogs spring does not seem to be a very enjoyable season. These are pets prone to allergies to environmental components that include fleas, pollen, dust and even grass. In spring symptoms may become worse and can be accompanied by itching, swelling of mucous membranes, runny nose, watery eyes and constant sneezing.

If you notice these signs in your pet, it is essential to immediately consult with your vet. If the cause really comes to environmental substances, your vet will help you choose the right treatment and can offer your pet a special diet, like Hill’s Prescription Diet Derm Defense by our Barbus company partner Hill’s Pet Nutrition.

This nutrition is specially formulated for dogs suffering from environmental allergies:
☑️ Clinically proven to help strengthen skin barrier
☑️ Contains the optimal level of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids for healthy skin and shiny coat
☑️ Soothes and maintains healthy skin and fur
☑️ Promotes natural skin regeneration
☑️ Supports immune system

Regardless stereotypes, cats and dogs can become best friends – if you help them a little bit.
