Dog Supplements for Itchy Skin & Paw Licking

If your dog is licking their paws raw, scratching through the night or shaking their head at their ears, the itch you can see usually starts somewhere you can't — the gut.

Why itchy skin often starts in the gut

Around 70% of a dog's immune system sits in their gut wall. When the balance of bacteria there is disrupted, the immune response can become over-reactive, and skin is where that shows up first: paw licking, scratching, yeasty ears, hot spots.

That's why we lead with probiotics rather than topical fixes. Supporting the gut supports the immune response behind the itch, instead of chasing the symptom.

What to try first

5 Strain Probiotic+ is the place most owners start — 5 billion live cultures in a cold-filled capsule you twist open over food. If the coat is dull or flaky as well as itchy, The Skin & Gut Duo pairs it with our Omega 3-6-9 oil.

How long it takes

Most owners tell us they notice less licking somewhere between weeks 3 and 6. Skin turns over slowly, so give it a full tub before judging. Every order is covered by our money-back guarantee.

If the skin is broken, weeping or your dog seems in pain, please see your vet — supplements support skin health, they don't replace veterinary care.
