Overview: Managing canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) can be difficult and require multimodal therapy. The International Committee of Allergic Diseases of Animals (ICADA) is a group of board-certified veterinary dermatologists that arrange publications of critical reviews on allergic diseases of domestic animal species. Recently, ICADA has updated the guidelines and knowledge available regarding the pathogenesis and treatment of cAD. This lecture will review these updated guidelines and instruct how to apply them to daily clinical management of cAD including skin barrier treatment, microbiome, immunotherapy, genetic factors, etc.

Learning Objectives:

• Introduce the ICADA updated guideline topics
• Discuss updates in cutaneous barrier and microbiome in cAD
• Review updates on genetic predisposition and environmental factors
• Discuss complexity of cytokines and chemokines in cAD and how the disease is multifactorial
