Canine Atopic Allergies: 3 Simple Steps to Relieve the Itching

Published on May 30, 2022

Help Make Your Dog More Comfortable
Canine atopic allergies are becoming increasingly common. They are especially prevalent in younger dogs, but unfortunately can develop into a life-long chronic condition. This is because canine atopic allergies are often caused by environmental and seasonal allergen.

As a result, many dogs are constantly surrounded by the allergens that trigger their symptoms. These include dust mites, pollen, trees, flea bites, mould, grass and chemical cleaning products.

These allergens can all cause skin symptoms (allergic skin disease or atopic dermatitis), ranging from mild irritation to unbearable itching. Moreover, the dog’s attempts to alleviate the itching by licking and scratching often makes things worse. It can lead to severe rashes, sores, redness, flaky skin, loss of fur – and even infected wounds.

Although treatments such as antihistamines, antibiotics and antifungals are available, these help alleviate symptoms rather than tackle the root cause. As a result, continuing treatments can cost thousands of pounds over your dog’s lifetime. In addition, treating animals is often harder than treating humans; this is because your dog can’t explain exactly what’s wrong and what they suspect is making them feel worse. It’s often impossible to know exactly what the cause of the allergy is. And they also don’t understand the need to stay away from things that cause them to react.

Fortunately, there is a simple three step, long-term solution that alleviates canine atopic allergies – and comes with a vet’s recommendation. Simply switching to products enriched with beneficial ‘good’ bacteria improves your dog’s skin health and helps them feel happier and more comfortable:

Using probiotic products helps reduce canine atopic allergy symptoms


THE 3-STEP PLAN FOR YOUR ITCHY DOG:

Chemical-based cleaning products are proven to cause long-term health issues, for humans as well as pets. Floor cleaning products especially can cause atopic allergies in dogs, if they walk on the chemically-cleaned floor and then lick their paws.

Switching to natural, probiotic cleaning products enriched with ‘good’ (probiotic) bacteria keeps surfaces and floors cleaner for longer. This also improves indoor air quality and restores healthier ecological balance in your home.
