6 Reasons Dog Parents Who "Tried Everything" Finally Got Their Dog to Stop Itching

If the probiotics, the shampoos, the allergy pills all worked for a few weeks and then stopped, it's probably because none of them were treating the real cause. Itching is caused when they gut-skin axis gets out of balance, and none of those solutions keep that balance to prevent future itching outbreaks. 

  1. Reason 1

    The itch keeps coming back because it was never the problem. Yeast was.

    Every dog carries a little yeast. The trouble starts when it overgrows in warm, damp spots: ears, paws, skin folds. Treat the itch and it calms for a week, then comes back, because the yeast never left. 

    Bestie Balance goes after the yeast itself with caprylic acid, a natural antifungal from coconut. Bring the yeast down and the itch has no reason to return.

  2. Reason 2

    Allergy pills quiet the itch. They don't touch the yeast.

    Apoquel and Cytopoint switch off the itch signal. They do nothing to the yeast, which is why the ears still smell and the next flare arrives on schedule. 

    Bestie Balance works alongside the meds and goes after the yeast and inflammation underneath, so the itch has less fuel. Many customers report being able to get their dogs off allergy medications using Bestie Balance. 

  3. Reason 3

    Shampoos and ear drops clean the surface. The yeast is living in the gut.

    You bathe him, clean the ears, and he's fine for a day. One customer used medicated shampoo every other day and the yeast was "right back sometimes the next day." That's because skin yeast is overflow from the gut. Bestie Balance was made for that reason: 

    2.5 billion probiotics from three strains that survive stomach acid take back the space the yeast was using. 

  4. Reason 4

    Most "itch chews" are a probiotic in a nice jar. That's not enough on its own.

    You've probably tried a probiotic chew. Many of our customers tried other supplements they saw in advertisements and were frustrated they didn't work. 

    A probiotic adds good bacteria but doesn't clear the yeast already there, help the liver flush it, or calm the skin. Bestie Balance does all four.

  5. Reason 5

    It doesn't work in 3 days. That's how you know it's real.

    Yeast overgrowth took months to build, so it takes time to rebalance. You already know quick fixes don't last. This is one chew that helps rebalance their whole system

  6. Reason 6

    You get 60 days to see it work. Most other products give you 30, or nothing.

    You've spent enough on things that didn't help. Give Bestie Balance a real shot, every day, for 60 days. If your dog isn't better, email us and we refund the jar. No forms, no calls, no questions. We're a husband-and-wife company in Colorado and we'd rather refund you than have you keep a jar that didn't work.

Questions we hear a lot

My dog is on Apoquel. Can I give this too?

Yes. Bestie Balance is a food-based supplement and works alongside allergy medication. Many owners use it to tackle the yeast while the medication handles the itch, and some find they can discuss reducing the medication with their vet over time. Always check with your vet about changes to prescription meds.

I've tried probiotic chews. How is this different?

A probiotic alone adds good bacteria. Bestie Balance also clears the existing yeast with caprylic acid, supports the liver, and calms the skin. The probiotic is one step of four, not the whole plan.

How long until I see something?

Ear smell and paw licking often ease in 3 to 6 weeks. Skin and flare-ups take 2 to 4 months. You have 60 days to decide, which is long enough to see the first signs.

What if my dog won't eat it?

Most dogs take it as a treat. If yours is picky, crumble it into food. If he still refuses, that's covered by the 60-day guarantee.

Is this for yeast only, or itching in general?

It's built for yeast. If your dog has the smell, the gunky ears, the paw chewing or the red folds, yeast is likely in the picture. If you're certain it's purely a food or pollen allergy, our Itch & Allergy chew is the better fit.
