Those of us who share our lives with dogs that have seasonal Summer allergies are probably breathing a sigh of relief as Autumn draws near.

However, did you know that the majority of dogs show non-seasonal clinical signs?_¹

A year-round strategy is vital in ensuring our dogs’ skin remains calm and in optimal health. A skin cell usually lasts for about one month, so what you are feeding your dog now will affect the health of his skin in one month’s time - you always need to be one step ahead! Also, with climate change and our lovely heated homes, environmental stressors now tend to be present all year round. Often these itchy dogs have some degree of genetic epidermal barrier dysfunction, along with other non-seasonal ‘flare factors’ such as food intolerances and ectoparasites_² – which makes maintaining your dog’s skin health a year-long endeavour.

Natural VetCare Dog’Skin pellets contain over 20 active ingredients in a unique synergistic blend formulated to reflect the natural complexity of skin issues. Dog’Skin is a blend of omega 3 and 6 essential fatty acids, skin nutrients and antioxidants to provide complete skin and coat support at the same time as aiding immunity and digestive health. Perfect for itchy, sensitive skin or dull, flaky coats.

Omega 3 essential fatty acids can provide great support for the skin barrier, aiding ceramide quality and breaking that horrible itch-scratch cycle. Dog’Skin also provides the vital building blocks to nourish the skin, coat and nails, alongside important micronutrients such as zinc, biotin, vitamins A, D and E, plus a complex of B vitamins. Feeding Dog’Skin daily all year round gives comprehensive support to your dog’s skin and overall health, with the added bonus of that glossy coat we all love to see!

360° nutritional support for skin health from the inside out.

The vets and nutritionists at Natural VetCare are always on hand for any specific advice, or to answer any questions you may have about maintaining your dog’s skin health all year long.
