For this we have a variety of products that can be used daily for when your pup's issue flares or to keep issues at bay. Check out our variety of supplements that you can add to your pooches food. These usually contain ingredients like vitamin E, fish oil and flax. We also have wipes, balms, shampoos and aloe vera gels to help with occasional flare ups. Skin problems can also be a sign of your dog having a food sensitivity, so it could be worth trying a grain-free dog food. Our range of anti-allergy shampoos for dogs are specially formulated to help manage skin reactions and conditions caused by allergies. Using medicated shampoos and wipes can make things easier. For dogs that have seasonal or environmental allergies, prescribing allergy tablets like antihistamines or steroids can be the best course of action. Shop our dog food for allergies to make sure that you are giving them a balanced diet that has all the nutrients they need, while avoiding the ingredients that they can't have.

The best way to help your pet stop itching is to visit your veterinarian, they will be able to determine the cause of your pet’s itching and treat it in the appropriate manner. With the go-ahead of your veterinarian, there are a few home itch-relief remedies that could help allergy-related itching in your pet. Colloidal oatmeal has been shown to have natural anti-inflammatory properties that can help to ease redness, swelling, and itchiness. Aloe Vera 100% aloe vera is a great natural remedy for relieving redness and drawing heat away from the skin, which is great for pets that have been itching a lot. To reduce itching, there are a few medications that may help, Lokivetmab, Oclacitinib, Prednisolone, and Antihistamines. Oclacitinib aims to stop the activation of itch-causing inflammatory chemicals. Prednisolone is a steroid with potent anti-inflammatory properties, often used for more severe conditions. Antihistamines may also be prescribed for some pets, but may not be suitable in all cases, their effect is highly variable in animals.

Most dogs with skin allergies benefit from the following: A skin supplement containing essential fatty acids. A topical emollient shampoo (skin calming) can also be used. Daily antihistamines are another option. Feed them a diet specially designed for sensitive skin (recommended by your vet). Anti-itch medication can be used to reduce itchiness, such as: Steroid tablets and spray (such as Prednisolone tablets, Medrone tablets and Cortavance spray). Lokivetmab injection (Cytopoint) and Oclacitinib tablets (Apoquel) are also available. The exact drug your vet prescribes will depend on your dog’s symptoms, how long they need to be treated for, and your budget.
