Abstract

Dermatopathies are among the most observed problems in the clinical routine of animals and the main etiological agents are bacteria, fungi and parasites. Atopic dermatitis develops due to the genetic character, the affected dogs become sensitive to environmental antigens, developing serious changes in the skin, with pruritic, fetid, scaly skin characteristics, and prone to secondary infections, which interferes in the animal's quality of life. Ozone therapy is a technique that uses ozone as a therapeutic agent and is being used in order to minimize the indiscriminate use of antimicrobials and to help promote the healing of skin lesions. The objective of this study is to analyze a specific case of a male animal, aged 11 years, diagnosed at 06 years of age with allergic contact dermatitis (CAD) and food hypersensitivity (AH), being observed in treatment with ozone therapy in water. It is observed with the study the effectiveness and evolution of the treatment, as well as the clinical improvement achieved, being the treatment of atopic dermatitis lifelong, due to its genetic character and exposure of the animal to the allergic factor. The benefits of introducing baths with ozonated water are the quality of life offered to the animal, since some drugs used, such as corticosteroids, can cause unwanted effects that in the long run, are able to shorten the animal's life span.
