		<description>The severe overuse of multiple vaccines and  commercial pet foods that contain toxins and not so many good nutrients could have a lot to do with pet health complaints like itching and rashes. Your recommendation for nutritious home made foods is a great first step in my opinion. Hoeopathic remedies are quite good too

		<description>my dog has food allergies so the vet put her on a special hypo-allergenic dog food and since then she&#039;s been doing much better. The only problem is that she is too thin. I talked to the vet, had her checked for parasites, but all the vet told me was to feed her more. I already give her twice what it tells me to on the bag... what should i do?</description>

		<description>Very informative post.  I too agree that if you truly love your dog.  You would be keen to her health needs as well.  I will only  advice to go for herbal remedies if possible and less on the chemically produced drug.  Opt for the right care and medication for your little angels.

		<description>We found that our Labs had weak immune systems. Since they&#039;ve been on &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.carnoyum.com&quot;&gt;CarnOyum&lt;/a&gt; their coats have improved and they&#039;ve stopped scratching and shedding constantly; they smell better too.</description>

		<description>I found this product through Facebook and Twitter.  I purchased it and absolutely loved it.  My dog gets allergies and licks his paws terribly every Spring/Summer and I always have to resort to putting him in those silly e-collars to keep him from chewing his paws off.  The Anti-Lick Strip is similar to a Bandaid with natural ingredients.  I recommend these to anyone if your poor baby goes through what my baby goes through every year during this time.</description>

		<description>Great information.  The only comment I have is that most dogs with food-related allergies have an allergy to grains more often than the meat source.  I would suggest first trying an elimination diet with the same protein the pet is used to eating without any of the common grain allergens (corn, wheat or soy).  Rice seems to be a fairly rare allergen as does oatmeal so finding a diet with either of those grains as the carbohydrate source is usually okay.  If after 45-60 days, the pet is still scratching and all other non-food allergens have been ruled out, switching to a unique protein and either a potato or sweet potato starch may prove appropriate. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturespetblog.com&quot;&gt;Nature&#039;s Pet Blog&lt;/a&gt;

		<description>If you have confirmed that your dog is suffering from airborne allergies then a good solution that is new to market is a liquid ioniser. Its discrete, silent and its liquidions reach out to every corner of the room to remove allergens from the air. Its goodfor humans too and you can add a light fragrance to take away your dog smells.</description>
