Elanco releases information leaflet for ScratchTracker App

Elanco Animal Health has announced the launch of an information leaflet that provides data on its ScratchTracker App.

The leaflet provides owners with an overview of the app's capabilities and its scoring scale, which has been developed by veterinary dermatologists to offer an accurate and consistent way for pet owners to assess pruritus in dogs.

With this simple tool, veterinary surgeons can also track how a dog is responding to treatment and identify reasons for an increase in the dog's level of itchiness.

Pet owners can simply follow on-screen instructions to add their dog's details and set up reminders, as well as entering their vet's contact details to enable them to be emailed the results.

ScratchTracker is available for iOS and Android devices and can be downloaded from the Apple App Store or Google Play.

Alice Laurens, dermatology marketing manager at Elanco Animal Health, said: "The new leaflet on the ScratchTracker App provides a detailed overview of how to use the useful monitoring tool which can track pruritus in dogs as part of either a short-term or long-term management programme."
