Allergies in dogs

Just like humans, dogs can also develop allergies. This is an overreaction of the immune system, through which the body reacts to an actually harmless substance, such as a component of dog food, with a defensive reaction.

In addition to food allergies, dogs can also suffer from flea saliva allergies, atopic dermatitis or food mite allergies. Typical symptoms of allergy in dogs include itching and skin problems, as well as digestive problems.

In our detailed guidebooks, we explain to interested dog owners everything they need to know about allergies and which measures are best suited to treat the symptoms of an allergic dog.
