ALLERGIES
An allergy is when your dog's immune system overreacts to a substance to which it is hypersensitive. When a dog is fed inferior food, allergies are more likely to develop.
Breeds prone to allergies include Beagles, Boxers, Chihuahuas , Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers, Boston Terriers, and many more.
Over 50% of dogs experience ear problems when allergic reactions occur!
THREE MAIN ALLERGY TYPES
True Allergies
May cause hives, swelling, or anaphylaxis. Hives and itching are also symptoms. True food allergies affect 10% of dogs.
Food Intolerance
An adverse reaction to food your dog is consuming. Often appears to be an allergic reaction, but vomiting and diarrhea may also occur.
Food Sensitivity
Doesn't often affect dogs the first time the food is eaten, but occurs over time. Symptoms include frequent ear infections, yeast, itchy paws and skin, and/or GI issues.
Frequently asked questions
Common signs include itching, red or inflamed skin, excessive licking or chewing of paws, ear infections, sneezing, vomiting, diarrhea, and chronic ear infections.
Allergies in dogs can be caused by various factors, including environmental allergens (like pollen, mold, and dust mites), food ingredients (such as beef, chicken, dairy, or grains), and flea bites.
Real Dog offers small fatty fish as single-ingredient, all-natural treats that support the immune system, reduce inflammation, and relieve clinical signs of allergy. Small fatty fish are a part of the monthly box subscription.
Food allergies can be identified through an elimination diet, where suspected allergens are removed and then gradually reintroduced.
Feeding a species-appropriate diet with fresh foods that are anti-inflammatory and support the immune system can significantly reduce your dog’s allergies. Adding other whole foods that contain antioxidants can also help. The best Real Dog treat for allergies is seafood options such as small fatty fish and green-lipped muscles.
Regular grooming, using hypoallergenic bedding, keeping your home clean, reducing exposure to known allergens, and providing a species-appropriate diet can help manage the clinical signs of allergies.
Feeding a Real Ancestral (6X) DietTM will provide essential fatty acids for your dog daily.
While it’s not always possible to prevent allergies, minimizing exposure to known allergens, feeding a species-appropriate diet that includes seafood, regular grooming, and using other whole food supplements can help reduce the risk and severity of allergic reactions.
