If your dog constantly licks their paws, scratches, shakes their head, or smells bad in certain areas — it might be a sign of a hidden yeast imbalance.

And if left untreated, it can cause serious discomfort.

 

What most dog owners don’t realize is that yeast issues often start in the gut.
When harmful bacteria take over and beneficial gut bacteria are too low, your dog’s immune system weakens. And since the immune system is your dog’s first line of defense against allergens and irritants, any imbalance can create a ripple effect.

 

A strong immune system helps keep yeast levels in check. But when the gut is out of balance, yeast can spike suddenly — leading to flare-ups. That’s when symptoms show up: itchy ears, smelly paws, irritated skin, constant licking, and scratching.


These aren’t just "quirks" — they’re signs that something is off inside your dog’s body.

Thankfully, there’s a simple way to help:


Introducing Petwell Probiotic Chews — delicious soft chews packed with billions of good bacteria designed to restore gut balance and fight yeast from within. Made specifically for South African dogs, Petwell tackles the root cause — so your dog can feel calm, comfortable, and healthy again.

Supports Dogs Sensitive to Pollen, Dust, and Environmental Triggers

If your dog scratches, licks, sneezes, or shakes more than usual during spring or summer, the real cause might be an overactive immune response. Many dogs mistakenly react to pollen, dust, or other harmless particles as if they were dangerous invaders. This leads to skin irritation, inflammation, and discomfort — especially around the ears, paws, and belly. Most treatments simply mask the symptoms. But they ignore the root cause: an imbalanced gut that disrupts immune function.

 

Petwell Probiotic Chews combine prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics in one powerful formula that supports gut health — and a healthy gut is key to a balanced immune system. A balanced immune system is less likely to overreact to seasonal allergens, so your dog can stay calm and comfortable, even when triggers are in the air.

It Can Even Improve Their Mood

Many dog owners notice when their pets just aren’t themselves — they’re less playful, more irritable, or seem withdrawn. What most people don’t realize is that these mood shifts may actually be linked to gut health.

 

Scientists have discovered that the gut and brain are connected through a communication network called the gut-brain axis. When your dog’s gut is out of balance, it can send the wrong signals to the brain — which may lead to anxious, low-energy, or even sad behavior.

 

Petwell’s unique formula helps support this gut-brain connection by restoring healthy gut function, so the brain receives the right signals. That means your dog’s mood can improve naturally — just by getting the gut support they need.

Your dog will thank you — just like they did:
