Dogs With Allergies and/or Dry Skin!

Have you been told that your dog suffers from
"allergies?" If so, it is sometimes difficult to
determine just what exactly is it your dog is
allergic to, and in reality, the problem may not
be allergies at all. In fact, most allergy
related symptoms usually stem from something
completely unrelated to an issue normally
associated with 'allergies." For example, the
most common symptom in "dog allergies", is
scratching and/or itching. There are many
reported cases of the skin becoming so itchy
that dogs will literally scratch themselves
until they bleed. Additionally, it is not
uncommon for dogs to scratch themselves bald.
Like humans, there are a myriad of types of
allergies and even more causes of those
allergies. The most common dog allergies consist
of: food allergies, dust mites, mold, other
animals, other dogs, people, insects and insect
bites, and seasonal allergies. It is pretty easy
to spot when your dog is having an allergic
reaction as it will scratch itself constantly.
The itching is indeed painful even though it
gives the appearance of temporary relief.

It is sometimes very difficult to determine what
the underlying cause of the symptoms afflicting
your pet. Meaning, it may very well not even be
an allergy. For example, your dog or cat could
be suffering from a Candida Yeast Infection.
Since many allergic reactions can be caused by
many different causes, it is difficult to
pinpoint and many times a vet will simply
diagnose your pet with an allergy and they will
then recommend a rather innocuous remedy such as
Benadryl, topical steroid, shampoos, topical
sprays, even an allergy shot. More times than
not however, these remedies offer no long term
relief, let alone a sustaining cure for the
underlying problem.

Just as there are many types of allergies and
recommended treatments, as noted above, there
are all-natural products on the market that have
shown to be an excellent aid in helping the body
use its natural ability to not only offer
immediate relief, but have actually been
instrumental in the overcoming the condition
altogether. One of the most common causes for
allergies in pets, is poor food diet. There are
several makers of All natural supplements on the
market, which provides the body with tools to
help itself heal naturally. These products are a
safe and holistic approach to supplying your pets
the nutrients that they may not be getting from
their food (particularly if they are being fed
food manufactured by the large commercial
brands.)
