Gugs Mhlungu talks to Dr Melvyn Greenberg, SAVA (South African Veterinary Association) President-elect and director, about seasonal allergies in pets, including common triggers like grass cutting, smoke, and carpets, the signs of allergic reactions, and how a dog’s age can affect its ability to stay warm. They also discuss why dogs are generally well adapted to cold weather due to their natural fur insulation.TAGS: Weekend breakfast with Gugs Mhlungu, Talk Radio 702, Sustainable living,  Dr Melvyn Greenberg, South African Veterinary Association, Pet allergies, seasonal allergies, dogs, animal health, veterinary science, SAVA, Dr Melvyn Greenberg, Allergens, Grass cutting, Smoke exposure, Carpets, Allergy symptoms, Pet care, Winter care for pets, Animal Temperature regulation
