hello everyone,
we, my friend, are sending you lots of greetings from Turkey.
We are 3 years old, we have been experiencing extreme allergy problems for 2 years. There is no hypoallergenic food we haven't tried, but the situation has started to go too far.
I use coconut oil, Travazol cream, but it doesn't help, can you please support us?
What do we need to do?
Regards EMRE AKPINAR
What are you currently feeding her???
Definitely the hypo allergenic food from the vet will NOT work as it’s all fillers and causes other health issues.
Is she really itchy or is it red irritated skin??
Coconut oil can actually cause inflammation in dogs as it can harm the gut health.
My Frenchie has severe allergies too, and environmental allergies are also common too not just food allergies.
Rusty has had allergies since he was 5 months old, he is 3.5 years old.
His allergies got so bad he seen a dermatologist cause of how bad it is.
Have you looked into switching her to raw diet or a lightly cooked low carb food??? That’s very good for allergies, especially the raw diet OR if you don’t want to feed raw you can do low carb lightly cooked(Raised Right human grade low carb dog food), and always rotating proteins prevents them from becoming allergic to what they eat.
Stay away from chicken as that’s a common allergy, especially for frenchies. Also avoid Corn, Wheat, rice(especially brewers rice), soy and by products(chicken by product for example).
If you want to stick to kibble, good options are:
-Natures Logic(it comes in Rabbit, Sardine, Lamb, Beef, Pork, Turkey for proteins). It doesn’t have potatoes or legumes or rice, it uses millet instead which is good for dogs with allergies.
-Carna 4 is oven baked kibble too that’s good. It comes in goat and venison for proteins too.
When dealing with allergies, try to stay away from synthetic vitamins in dog food, both those kibbles(Natures Logic and Carna 4) are synthetic free also the raised right gently cooked dog food is synthetic free too, only whole food based so less likely to trigger an allergic reaction.
Also supplements for allergies, these are all really beneficial:
-Probiotics help keep yeast minimal and improve immune system.
- Omega 3 like sardine oil or Herring oil is great for allergies and inflammation, helps with itchy and inflammation.
-Bovine Colostrum powder is great for allergies, it’s been the best supplement that I have Rusty on for his allergies, it’s a powder you put into the dish without food, put the powder by itself in the dish 30 minutes before breakfast cause it’s better absorbed on empty stomach, the dogs just lick it out of the dish.
It’s got amazing health benefits, but a lot of people give it to the dogs for allergies, that’s been the best supplement I have Rusty on for allergies and it’s made a huge difference in his environmental allergies.
I buy the Four Leaf Rover brand Bovine colostrum.
I highly recommend you switch her food to one of the options I mentioned above, and add bovine colostrum supplement and if you want to add omega 3 that would be good too.
You can also give her a bath to rinse off the allergies cause fall/winter allergies have flared up cause of mold, and wet grass is also a common allergy. I bath Rusty once a week for maintenance which helps wash off the environmental allergies from his paws.
Keep us updated
