Do you know how to spot the signs? And do you know the benefits of grain-free dog treats for allergies and intolerances?
How To Spot Allergies
According to PetMD, the most common signs of allergies in dogs are:
Itchy skin
Scratching
Licking
Face rubbing
Red skin
Loss of fur
Recurrent skin and ear infections
Gastrointestinal (GI) signs
If you’re concerned about any symptoms that your pooch is displaying, even if they’re not inclusive of this list, then speak to your vet and get your dog checked out – it’s always better to be safe than sorry.
What Are The Most Common Allergies?
Much like humans, dogs can be allergic to a variety of things including environmental allergens such as pollen (yes – your pooch can get hay fever!) to certain household products and foods. Grains can be upsetting for some furry friends’ tummies, which is why we’ve formulated our grain-free range, ideal for pups with allergies and digestive issues.
How Do Grain-Free Dog Treats Help?
Our Pointer grain-free treats offer a variety of flavours along with nutrition, but did you know there are several health benefits to feeding your dog these kinds of goodies?
- Grain-free treats can reduce the list of things your dog may be allergic to
- Grain-free treats are also typically better for weight loss in dogs, formulated from healthy ingredients such as sweet potatoes, fruits and veggies
- Grain-free treats also allow for a more balanced diet, promoting a healthier coat
