Great for seasonal allergies!
I am a retired veterinary technician and have a dog who has seasonal allergies, and food allergies. His symptoms consist mostly of scratching at his face, and chewing his feet. The food allergies have been controlled by putting him on a limited ingredient diet. The seasonal allergies usually started up in April and last until November, and required antihistamines. Last spring my vet convinced me to try the prescription medication Apoquel which is an immunosuppressive. At first it seemed like magic, my dog had zero allergy symptoms. Then after being on the medication for a few months, my dog developed a histiocytoma (a benign tumor) on his lip. These are typically seen in puppies and young dogs – my dog was 4 yrs. old at the time. These usually go away on their own after a few months and that is exactly what happened – no big deal (other than a trip to the vet to confirm that it was in fact a histiocytoma and not a more aggressive tumor). Several months later, while still on Apoquel, my dog started chewing on his right front leg, up near where the leg and body meet (his front “armpit” if you will). He was also shedding like crazy – HUGE amounts of fur. He ended up with a large area of hair loss and red angry looking skin on his right front leg. He would not leave it alone. This happened after the allergy season. I bought a sleeve to keep him away from it, and took him to the vet (again). She did a skin scraping to check for bacterial infection, yeast infection, or mange which were all negative, and then suggested putting him on prednisone (another immunosuppressant) in addition to the Apoquel and Zyrtec. I told her I had been reading up on Apoquel and some of the side effects included histiocytomas and demodectic mange. I told her I was going to pull him off of the Apoquel (which needed to be done by weaning over a few weeks). She suggested I could try a dose of Bravecto which is used for fleas and ticks, but also is very effective in treating demodectic mange mites just in case the negative scraping was due to a low population of mites. Within a week of getting him off of the Apoquel and using the Bravecto his skin calmed down, and at that time I noticed that his entire coat was thinning – more noticeably on his right side. Once he was off of that nasty drug it took a few months for his fur to grow back. This year before allergy season started, I decided to read up on supplements for allergies. I chose Zesty Paws because of all of the good reviews, and the company’s reputation. I started giving them to my dog in March and now well into allergy season have not seen ANY of his usual allergy symptoms. Also, his coat looks beautiful again!

Great product for itchiness
This is a powerful product that is effective in calming your pets itchiness and coat shine. It is a great value for your money and the size is perfect for my two dogs.

Take a while to kick in
Update: I am now almost thru the entire container and they have helped SO MUCH. My dog has almost completely stopped itching. They take about 2 weeks to kick in, but once they do they really help. I changed my rating to 5 stars.They come dusted in flavor so my dog has no problem eating them. However, I have been giving her 2 a day for a solid week now and I don’t see any change in her itching. I will give it another week and come back to update this review. So far, they aren’t helping at all.

It really works
I have a white staffy and they’re prone to sensitive skin anyway. He had hot spots and would even occasionally bleed from scratching his belly so much. Within a month it all cleared up. He used to scratch all of the time. ALL of the time. He was so uncomfortable. He doesn’t scratch at all. NONE! He used to lick his paws so much he would leave wet spots everywhere. No more of that! His ears were always so yeasty. Those have taken the longest to change, but they are almost completely clean. It really does work. Got the lamb flavor and it stinks a bit and took a little coercion to get him to eat them. Had to give them as “treats” followed immediately by something he likes. But after a month, it’s like clockwork. He doesn’t need any help, he eats them right up like he acquired a taste.

Even if I mixed some food still she’s not eating it.

My darlings do suffer immune probs so the eldest gets daily meds plus Zesty. She seems much better her nose less dry and scabby but is it Zesty or the meds or the mix of both that has helped? Who knows. The test is….I’m reordering!
