Do you have a fur-baby that has skin issues or other allergies? Welcome to the club! There seems to be a growing epidemic of pets out there that are more susceptible to allergies, skin conditions, tumors etc than there ever was before. Because, there is so little of this seen naturally out in the wild, I strongly feel as though it's a part of domestication. Something that we found with our Bostons, that’s a running trend, is that they often don’t have thick, shiny hair naturally. Some of that is definitely dog food and what they put into their system...and if they are a newborn, what their mother ate or her overall health. When our little Odie was a puppy, his skin was pink and his fur was thinner and finer, so it was easy to see the irritated skin underneath. He also had giardia when we first got him which is an intestinal parasite. So, we did have to clean his system of that. However, the skin issues persisted. Fortunately, I was doing a Dr. Axe protocol for healing my gut...
