Itchy Pet Awareness Month
🐶🐾🐱
Beyond scratching, you may see red, inflamed skin, hair loss, chronic ear infections, and constant licking or chewing at paws. These may persist despite conventional treatments like anti-inflammatories or antibiotics. Is it allergies? Skin disease? Yeast? Leaky gut?
What can you do?
- Support the immune system. Identify and remove emotional, environmental, or other stressors that may be overburdening your pet's internal defenses
- Prioritize high-quality, unprocessed diet. Nutrition is the keystone for maintaining wellness. Identify which foods may be triggering an inflammatory response
- Support gut health with pre- and probiotics. A well functioning GI tract is key to a healthy immune system.
- Try natural topical relief. Like soothing sprays or shampoos for comfort if needed
- Move toward self-sufficiency. The goal is to support your dog’s body to become more self-sufficient in the long term
Itch isn’t just annoying—it may signal deeper disharmony. The goal is to support your dog’s body to become more self-sufficient in the long term. We focus on understanding your pet’s itch from the inside out and taking steps toward real, lasting relief.
