Food or environmental allergens can often trigger skin problems in cats and dogs ...
It seems that cats and dogs have become more sensitive to a range of substances they come into contact with, either in the environment or through their food. Dogs appear to suffer from food allergies more than cats and changing to a more natural feeding regime by reducing the additives given has proved helpful. For contact allergies the only real solution is to identify the cause and restrict the animal’s access to it, although this can prove difficult in practice.
Many food allergies in dogs present themselves as skin irritation and this can result in a minor infection, which can be treated with Garlic & Fenugreek tablets. This natural product will also help to remove toxin accumulation in the body, together with Mixed Vegetable tablets to reduce the irritation; both should be given at the treatment dose.
