Itchy, Smelly and Losing Hair?

Hello readers,
Re: What is Itchy, Smelly and Losing Hair?
//////////////////////////////////////////////
Hello fellow readers and involved pet people!!
I have been seeing allergic dogs and cats ALL by the
bucketloads.
These are one UNHAPPY pets.
Itchy..all the time
Hair Loss and Skin Infections
Oil, greasy haircoats.
Excessive paw licking and anal licking.
Often with an unpleasant odor.
All in all, allergies are increasingly common- for you as
a concerned pet guardian, you should be most concerned with
PREVENTING these in the first place.
So WHAT can you do to prevent these from happening??
1. DIET....Think Natural and Simple. If you wouldn't eat
it, then don't feed it to your dog or cat.
If you are using commercial food, choose a Natural diet with
a simple animal protein as the primary ingredient.
I like Fish for dogs, and Chicken or Turkey for cats.
Make some of your own food. I have sent many recipes.
Try some of the RAW diets.
The key is not exposing your dog or cat to common allergens,
such as food coloring, preservatives, etc in the first place.
2. GOOD parasite control. Make sure that your dog or cat
doesn't have to deal with reapeated Flea or Lice bites.
3. Vaccines..they sensitize your dog or cat's immune system
to potentially over-react and develop allergies. In a nutshell,
as few and as infrequent as possible.
4. Supplements. I am advising a QUALITY essential Fatty Acid
supplement- Ground Flax for dogs, and Fish Oil for cats.
