1. “This Is One of the Most Common Problems I See”

These issues sound simple, but they can be a nightmare to manage.

✔️ itchy paws

✔️ smelly or gunky ears

✔️ red or smelly skin

✔️ greasy coats

✔️ and problems that keep coming back

Dr Dart says this isn’t rare — he sees it every week, across all breeds and ages.

“Around a quarter of the dogs I see have ear or skin problems. It’s incredibly common.”

— Dr Bryan Dart, Vet of 21 Years

2. Why Most Solutions Only Work Short-Term

“You can calm things down for a while, but the problem often comes back.”

Many dogs are given ear drops, sprays, wipes, jabs and various pills.

They often only help for a bit — because they usually target the surface, not the cause.

That’s why owners often feel stuck in a cycle of:

result → flare-up → repeat

3. The Pattern Behind Itchy Ears, Paws & Skin

Dr Dart explains it like this:

The microbiome keeps things in balance
Some dogs lose the variety of good bacteria they need
The immune system becomes more sensitive
Yeast and bacteria can build up
Skin and ears get gunky itchy
Dogs scratch, lick, and make it worse

“Studies show dogs with ongoing ear and skin issues often have less variety in their microbiome compared to healthy dogs.”

Many everyday things can affect the microbiome; like diet changes, stress, or medications.

That’s why ear and skin issues often return, even after clearing.

4. Why Dr Dart Started Using BetterBlend®

The key is to support the microbiome, not just calm the surface.

“A lot of these dogs are missing some of the good bacteria they need.”

That’s why BetterBlend® supports the microbiome by:

adding a variety of good bacteria
helping the good bacteria multiply and survive
being gentle enough to use every day for sensitive dogs

After lots of research, Dr Dart decided to try BetterBlend® with his own dogs.

5. “I Tried It With My Own Dogs First”

Dr. Dart has 3 dogs: 1 Rottweiler and 2 Pugs.

All three have struggled with long-term ear and skin issues.

That’s why he tried BetterBlend® with his own dogs first.

“Once I’d seen how my own dogs did, I felt comfortable recommending it.”

After that, he began talking about BetterBlend® with other vets and nurses.

“When I’m in practices, vets will often mention their own dogs with itchy skin or ear problems. I suggest starting probiotics and ask them to let me know what they see after a few weeks.”

When he followed up later, many told him they’d seen good results too.

6. Alfie’s Experience

One dog he recommended BetterBlend® to was Alfie.

Alfie was always licking his paws, and his ears were red, sore, and gunky. His owner said he didn’t like his ears being touched and seemed uncomfortable most days.

Dr Dart suggested adding BetterBlend® to Alfie’s food and checking back after a few weeks.

About five weeks later, things looked different. Alfie had stopped licking his paws. His ears were calmer, and he no longer reacted when they were touched.
