When Heather first reached out to CanineCeuticals, she was at her wits’ end trying to help her beloved Dalmatian, Annie. Like many dog parents, Heather had followed every piece of advice from her vet - yet Annie was still battling stubborn skin problems.
Annie’s story is a powerful reminder for anyone wondering: Could my dog’s itchy skin, yeasty smell and hair loss be connected to gut health?

Meet Annie: A Dalmatian With Persistent Allergies and a Complex Health History
At nine and a half years old, Annie has faced her share of challenges. Beyond allergies, she lives with a rare fungal condition and a compromised immune system, leaving her vulnerable to flare-ups and uncomfortable reactions.
Before finding CanineCeuticals, Heather was doing everything she could. Annie was on antihistamines and prescription creams, but they only did so much. The yeast smell lingered. The redness remained. Hair loss continued.

Why Heather Looked Beyond Topical Solutions
Heather knew instinctively that treating Annie’s skin on the outside wasn’t enough, and the root cause was likely inside. That’s when she reached out to Narelle Cooke, CanineCeuticals’ founder and qualified naturopath, for advice.
In May 2025, Heather started Annie on the Allergy Support Bundle, a targeted combination designed to gently support gut balance, immune health, and the skin’s natural barrier from the inside out.
What Changed for Annie?
The improvements were clear:
- Redness subsided
- Yeasty smell disappeared
- Hair started to grow back
- Itchiness reduced
By focusing on Annie’s gut health, Heather saw a transformation that topical treatments alone couldn’t deliver. Supporting the gut helped calm Annie’s skin, restoring her comfort and giving Heather hope during an otherwise difficult journey.

Ongoing Support for Annie
“I just had a feeling her gut health was completely off and needed help! I trust this product and have no doubts this is exactly what healed her. Now Annie doesn’t stink anymore and her fur is growing back - I’ll keep using it for as long as she needs it.”
Heather continues to use the Allergy Support Bundle as part of Annie’s daily routine, giving her a little extra comfort and care — no matter what comes next.

Could Gut Health Be the Missing Link for Your Dog’s Allergies?
If your dog’s skin is inflamed, itchy, or yeasty-smelling despite medicated washes or creams, it might be time to ask: Is my dog’s gut out of balance?
For many dogs, supporting digestion and the immune system can help reduce external symptoms like redness, hair loss, and persistent odours.
