Did you know...

Estimates suggest

up to 15% of dogs

are affected by canine atopic dermatitis.¹

Some itching is normal for dogs, but knowing when it becomes excessive is essential, accurately quantifying itching can be challenging. A thorough history of when and how much a dog itches is helpful to guide a diagnosis of atopic dermatitis or other causes of excessive itching.

The new way to detect allergies faster

While the occasional lick and scratch are totally normal, an uptick in one (or both) of these behaviors is a strong indication that your pet is suffering from allergies of some kind.

Whistle translates millions of data points from your dog’s behavior into daily health insights—so you can spot allergy symptoms sooner.

Allergy mysteries, solved.

Allergies are in full bloom, but that doesn't mean your pet has to suffer. A Whistle smart device can help you track licking and scratching so you can detect signs of allergies faster.

"I love how the Whistle tracks his scratching and licking! Helped me notice Watson's seasonal allergies had started early."
– Watson's Pet Parent
“Thanks to our Whistle, we were alerted that Heidi's itching was "severe," something that we wouldn't have noticed since both of us work during most of the day. We took her to the vet and placed her on some allergy medicine”
– Heidi's Pet Parent
"A few weeks ago, our Whistle alerted us that Rusty's scratching had increased substantially. Because of Whistle, we were able to keep a close eye on how much he was scratching. After about a week of elevated levels, we took him to the vet and turns out he has seasonal allergies! It was so nice to have the data to show our vet and get a quick diagnosis."
- Shelby & Rusty 
"The Whistle really helps me keep track of how active Athena is on a daily basis. She’s got horrible allergies, so it helps me determine how her medicine is working based on the updates I get from the Whistle."
- Athena's Pet Parent
“I got the Whistle to make sure that my apartment dog was getting enough activity throughout the week. Whistle has helped me stay on top of Tucker’s health but telling me when his itching has increased for allergies and flea season! It’s a wonderful way to keep track of things since our animals can’t speak to us. Very impressed!”
- Tucker's Pet Parent
“Bear is a lovable shepherd. But we notice him licking a little more than usually. We just figured it was just him cleaning himself. But with the device calculating the licks and categorizing frequency of the lick, encouraged us to share the info with our veterinarian. We found out it was allergies."
- Bear's Pet Parent
“As an English Bulldog, Sophie suffers from terrible allergies. Whistle has helped me keep track of her licking habits and pick up on any skin issues before it gets bad. I also realized she sleeps close to 18 hours a day!”
- Sophie's Pet Parent
