Question
Hello, my British Bulldog, Buddha, is 3 and has numerous allergies to foods and most things outdoors like grasses, certain trees etc etc... I have him at the vets often for his itching but have never had a recommendation on what to feed him. Is there anything that I can feed him to alleviate his itching or any creams that would help his itchy jowls and armpits?
It breaks my heart to watch him so itchy and I don't really want to pump him full of drugs if there are natural alternatives.
Your advice would be welcome

Thank you, Portia

Answer
OH, I am so glad you asked for help!  I bet he has yeast reltated to his allergies.  Here are some suggestions to try:

First, Let's get this boy on some Innova EVO or Wellness CORE-  the two foods can be found at pet stores.. YOU can also order "on - line" but you will have to pay for some shipping of heavy dog food bags.  I hope you have a pet store around ????  If not , let me know and I may be able to help with another brand.

Next, your boy need some Acidophilus 1 billion CFUs - give him one per day - hide in some cheese or food.
Make sure you get this ASAP - You can find it at Walmart, Target, or any other store that has a Health and Beauty section...( human supplement used for dogs, too)

Last, Please call Joan now and get some NuVET Plus - Take the 90 DAY trial and see what NuVET can do for your kid's skin, coat and overall health.  
*****Also, NuVET helps to build up the immune system so little Buddha can fight off the allergens***** We have so many Bullies on NuVET because of Allergies...
