Allergy Support
Providing Allergy Support Via Nutritional Supplements
Allergies can impact your dog’s quality of life and your relationship with them. An allergy is simply the immune system overreacting or experiencing a hypersensitivity to an allergen, which are proteins. Common allergens can include proteins from food, insects, animals or plants.
The route allergens can take to affect your pet include the following:
- Inhaled – pollen, molds, dust and skin dander (including human)
- Skin contact – dust mites, flea saliva, shampoos, chemicals and topical medications
- Food/Ingested – dog food, treats and medications
If your dog is experiencing symptoms of allergies, contact your veterinarian to determine the cause and outline a plan of action to provide relief.
