Looking for Help for Hot Spots on Dogs?

RELIEF FOR A DOGS ITCHY HOT SPOTS CAN BE SIMPLE, OR SOMETIMES MORE COMPLEX!


THOSE HOT SPOTS ON YOUR DOG (or occasionally on cats)...
Are moist skin eruptions that can occur anywhere on a dog's body. The name is derived because they most generally occur during the hot summer months. The spreading area can appear raw and red and, no matter the underlying cause, is also a ripe breeding ground for bacteria, which can further complicate the issue. These problems are virtually always related to nutritional deficiencies and digestive system disorders. Therefore, the complexity of the resolution will vary from one dog to another. For the best dog foods* for Hot Spots, see our Recommended Foods.

NZYMES® ANTIOXIDANTS CAN PLAY A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN RESOLVING HOT SPOTS
The Antioxidant Treats used alone, along with a proper quality food*, have often shown great results with the more simple Hot Spots cases we have seen; and keep in mind that we deal with large numbers of such cases. However, it is important to point out, that these kinds of problems on the skin surface of a Dog or Cat are most often tied to an intestinal digestive disorder known as Systemic Yeast Infection, which is why the words "more complex" were used above. SYI's can be very minor - only showing up with minor issues that come and go, such as Hot Spots (usually tied to changes in the climate) - OR they can be very severe if they've been going on for years and handled with treatments for what Vets determine as "allergy problems". Unfortunately, the vast majority of vets will look at pets with itchy skin or ear problems - where immune system response is involved - and assess that "Allergies" are the root cause of the inflammation that results in itching, redness and sores (or even blackened skin). More on this lower on the page. Now that we've exposed probable complexities, we need to help you choose a plan of attack.

MAKING A FINAL ANALYSIS - TO DECIDE TREATMENT DIRECTION...
Complex or not complex, that is the question. If your pet is suffering with only one or a few Hot Spots, and maybe some minor itching at other areas (like licking of the feet), then we would suggest you try the Antioxidant Treats FIRST - for 2-3 months, and see where this goes (expect some worsening in early weeks with necessary detoxification). WARNING: Should you decide to try the Treats alone in the beginning and positive changes are not seen in a couple of months, OR only worsening is seen - DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED! This only means that your pets immune system is not strong enough to do it alone, and more help will be needed than just the Treats alone can provide.

Remember, Candida infection is almost certainly involved; it's only a question of whether it's truly minor or not. IF the issue IS still minor, it could be partly because "better than average" food is in use, even though it may still not be a 'proper food' necessary for resolving these problems. The food isssue, alone, is a very complex subject. You won't find much in the way of 'proper quality food' at your supermarket, big department stores, or major chain pet-food stores. To find a "good AND proper food", as needed for resolving these issues, click here - Pet Foods for Yeast Problems. Keep in mind... that these kind of problems are complicated; NZYMES phone support is here for you.

ASSESSING COMPLEXITY: You really need to do a careful assessment of your pet's symptoms before choosing how you will proceed. IF you are seeing several other symptoms with your pet, such as - chewing at legs (along with licking paws), rashes or red skin inflammation, blackening of skin areas, licking at genitals, ear infections or frequent shaking of the head, unexpected lethargy, or arthritic symptoms - then the likelihood becomes MUCH greater that your dog (or cat) has a full-blown Yeast Candida infection that needs the full benefit of our comprehensive Yeast Removal Program. If you know of 2 or more of these other symptoms with your pet, then we suggest you proceed right now to our special Yeast Assessment Video.

Should you assess more going on than simple Hot Spots...

AN NZYMES YEAST KIT, AND OUR YEAST REMOVAL PROGRAM IS THE BEST ANSWER TO THE PROBLEM

HOTS SPOTS AND THE NZYMES YEAST REMOVAL PROGRAM
As mentioned earlier, whenever there are 'Hot Spots' problems, there are often enough indications that the full program will be needed to get the pet resolved and healthy again. Please understand that Yeast Candida problems are internal; i.e., the Candida fungus had taken control of intestinal tissues as a result of damage to the Flora that normally protects those tissues and aids the digestive process. Damage to the Flora, the beneficial bacterial colonies, results from many different destructive forces - antibiotics use, vaccination reactions, poor quality pet foods, and even tap-water chlorine levels. Also, Yeast Candida problems (Candidiasis) are time-consuming to resolve, and can sometimes be very challenging, especially when other complications are involved.

Choosing a Yeast Kit to begin the Program: There are two basic NZYMES Yeast Kits, shown below, and two specially priced 'value-sized' kits for people with multiple pets suffering. The Small Yeast Kit is recommended for smaller dogs (under 60 lbs), and the Large Yeast Kit is more ecconomical for larger dogs (over 60 lbs.). The main difference being the large Jar of Granules will last a large dog 6-8 months versus 2 bottles of Treats only lasting only a few months. Click on a Kit to be taken to that product page. Below are the links to other important information to help you understand and solve complex yeast cases.
