Zesty Paws Senior Allergy Immune Bites - Dog Allergy Chews, Dog Probiotics for Itchy Skin and Ears, Salmon, 90ct

I have four senior dogs ranging in age from 13 to 16 years. The oldest one had started to get periodic bouts of diarrhea and not wanting to eat, which was dangerous as he's a very small toy poodle weighing only 3.25 pounds. Since I know that people's microbiome or gut health and immunity can decline with age, it made sense that this also happens in dogs. Especially if you ever had to put your dog on a course of antibiotics in their lifetime, which we almost all have. I started searching for a prebiotic/probiotic supplement for dogs, and when I found Zesty Paws Advanced Allergy Immune Supplement, I knew I had hit the jackpot! Not only does it have a prebiotic and probiotic (many don't know that the prebiotic is just as important as the probiotic because you need to feed the good flora), but it also contains EpiCor, a supplement I take myself! EpiCor is an all natural supplement derived from fermented yeast, and it is an absolute miracle for your immune system. I come into a lot of daily contact with people and I hardly ever get sick, even after being around people who are sick. And if I catch anything it's very mild and I'm fine in a day, I can go for years without catching even a cold. I was so happy and surprised to see EpiCor on the ingredient list! In addition, it contains colostrum, which is literally the foundation of any animal's immune system. If a young animal does not get colostrum from its mother's first milk, it often doesn't survive because the immune system never develops properly. And last but not least, salmon oil, which is rich in omega-3 fatty acids which are beneficial to every cell in the body. Especially good at fighting inflammation and allergies. Zesty Paws Advanced Allergy Immune Supplement is basically the all-in-one dog version of the supplements I take to maintain my own health! So after a few months of daily supplementation with Zesty Paws Advanced Allergy Immune Supplement, the health of all of my dogs has greatly improved. My 16 year old dog's diarrhea completely stopped, and he has more energy! The Bites are adorably heart shaped, and are very soft and easy to crumble which is important as my dogs don't have many teeth left. I crumble one as a topper over their food since all four of my dogs together weigh under 25 pounds, lol! They all love the taste and definitely get more excited about dinnertime than without the Bites, and 3 out of 4 of my dogs are often a bit finicky about food. My 13 year old used to chew and lick at her paws all the time, despite my having tried every hypo-allergenic, limited ingredient and single protein source food, as well as several different supplements. It got to the point that I had accepted that it was something that couldn't be cured, or I thought it might just be a habit. Lo and behold, her paw licking and chewing almost completely stopped! She hardly does it anymore, and I am so happy that she must feel so much more comfortable now. If you're looking for a supplement to keep your dog happy and healthy for life, Zesty Paws Advanced Allergy Immune Supplement is truly the only one you need!

Truly helped my 8 year old Shiba Inu stop scratching and he absolutely loves them! Who am I kidding... Shiba's love to eat everything! Our Yukai suffered for years with allergies starting in January all through April. We tried everything to help him: Apoquel, Benedryl, Cytopoint, Steroids, Zyrtec.... you name it we tried it. He scratched less after being on these 1 week and 2 months later... no more scratching!! We've been giving him these for 3 years now and will never stop using this product!

So our pug last year had pretty severe allergies and was up all night crying and scratching. It would keep us up all night. We took her to the vet and Apoquel was prescribed for a hefty price, although it did work. Breaking the bank, we looked for a safer more natural alternative. We first tried another brand with different ingredients, and it mildly helped with the itching. This one had completely different ingredients which I hoped would build her immune system. The result has been great. It took about 2 weeks to really kick in, but now she sleeps through the night, does not cry. Her thick keloid scars are gone. She, on occasion, still nibbles her paws and does what we call the "sit and spin", but for the most part she is very comfortable and very happy. I am really pleased with the results. Update: 7/22 She has been doing really on this supplement in combination with a change in food. We have been using Purina Proplan Sensitive Skin and Stomach for older dogs. The combination of these two products really makes the difference in her comfort level. Her itching behaviors are greatly reduced. She may nibble her paws a bit on occasion during the day, but it’s relatively rare. The other itching behaviors are rare. She sleeps like a rock now and clearly is more comfortable now and doesn’t stay up crying and whining at night. We are relieved and happy pet parents!

This stuff works. I have a 13 year old Shih Tzu who has been dealing with allergies for yearShe gets a dose of Apoquil in the morning and it gets her through till about 5 am. She starts itching her ears and rolling around. I have tried other allergy chews but this one WORKS! We have been giving to her at dinner and it carries her through till her next Apoquil dose. I may even try discontinuing the Apoquil to see what it does. I will update if I do. Very, very pleased.

I was in hopes that I could use these in place of apoquel. She likes the taste but she still has allergies.

Purchased for my 2-year-old Dachshund who has allergies. I wanted to be proactive about supporting his gut health, so after reading numerous positive reviews I decided to give these a try. Biggest mistake. By the morning after his second chew, my dog was unable to stand, had tremors, was extremely lethargic, and would not eat or drink anything. I had to syringe water to keep him hydrated. The only thing different he had consumed were these vitamins. I went back and reviewed the product reviews again—this time filtering for the 1-star reviews—and to my shock, I found several other pet owners describing the exact same symptoms. It is absolutely heartbreaking to watch your dog suffer and not initially know why. It took about two days for him to regain the use of his hind legs, and at the time of writing this review he is still very weak and extremely tired, mostly just lying around. Please proceed with extreme caution before giving these to your dog.

the product received is in bad condition, as soon as it was opened the smell was disgusting/rotten and the color of the jelly beans was whitish, which indicated mold growth, bacteria or something like that. Besides the fact that it is a product to be used for 90 days and the product expires in February, so the sale of this product should not be allowed.

Very expensive
