Canine Allergies & Sensitivities: Protecting Health Through Personalized Care
Allergies and food sensitivities are some of the most common — and often overlooked — health challenges in dogs. From itchy skin and ear infections to digestive upset and chronic inflammation, these issues don’t just affect comfort in the short term — they can significantly impact long-term health, immunity, and longevity. By identifying the root cause of sensitivities and tailoring diet and environment, we can reduce inflammation, restore balance, and support a longer, healthier life.
Why Allergies Matter for Longevity
Allergies and sensitivities aren’t just “skin-deep.” Chronic immune activation can:
Weaken the gut barrier and microbiome
Drive systemic inflammation (a key driver of aging)
Stress the liver and detoxification pathways
Contribute to joint, metabolic, and cognitive decline over time
Personalized care helps prevent these “hidden fires” from undermining a dog’s vitality.
Common Signs of Allergies & Sensitivities in Dogs
Itchy skin, hotspots, or recurrent ear infections
Excessive paw licking or chewing
Digestive issues (diarrhea, gas, bloating, irregular stools)
Red, irritated skin or hair loss
Seasonal flare-ups linked to pollen, grass, or dust
Chronic low energy or restlessness
Personalized Strategies for Allergy Support
Targeted Nutrition
Elimination or rotation diets to identify food triggers
Anti-inflammatory, whole-food based diets rich in Omega-3s
High-fiber, microbiome-supportive foods to strengthen gut resilience
Microbiome & Immune Support
Probiotics and prebiotics tailored to restore balance
Functional testing to guide gut healing strategies
Nutrients like quercetin, curcumin, and vitamin D to modulate inflammation
Environmental Adjustments
Reducing chemical exposures in cleaning products and lawn care
Using air purifiers or hypoallergenic bedding
Supporting seasonal resilience with immune-balancing nutrients
Lab Testing for Precision
Food sensitivity and allergy panels
Stool and microbiome testing
Inflammatory marker assessments
The Longevity Connection
Chronic, unmanaged allergies accelerate “inflammaging” — the gradual rise of systemic inflammation that underlies many age-related diseases. By personalizing care, identifying triggers, and restoring immune balance, we not only ease symptoms but also protect long-term vitality, resilience, and quality of life.
