Why are allergies so common in dogs?
Allergies in dogs are unfortunately no longer rare. The most common triggers are:
- Proteins such as beef, chicken or pork
- Grains such as wheat or maize
- Additives and artificial preservatives
These substances can cause an overreaction of the immune system in dogs, which shows up in various symptoms:
- Severe itching and reddened skin
- Hair loss and eczema
- Frequent scratching and licking
- Digestive problems such as diarrhoea or vomiting
The first step towards relief is always switching to a suitable food that excludes the allergens.
What is the allergy box for dogs?
The allergy box for dogs is a specially put-together box with high-quality, hypoallergenic snacks and food samples tailored to sensitive dogs with allergies. At snack4pet.com you'll find exactly such Sensitiv-Boxes, for example, which contain different protein sources and grain-free ingredients.
Advantages of the allergy box at a glance
- Variety of ingredients: you can try different contents and discover the perfect snack or the right food for your dog.
- Hypoallergenic: the ingredients are carefully selected to avoid allergic reactions.
- Practical portion sizes: ideal for testing how your dog reacts to the individual snacks or foods.

If you'd like to know more about the ingredients and origin of the treats, take a look at the information on hypoallergenic dog food – here you'll find lots of helpful tips.
Hypoallergenic selection: what's behind it?
The word “hypoallergenic” means that an ingredient or product is composed so that it triggers an allergic reaction as rarely as possible. These products are ideal for dogs with allergies or intolerances because they:
- Avoid common allergens (e.g. beef, grain, soy)
- Use alternative protein sources such as lamb, duck or insect protein
- Are free from artificial additives, colourings and flavour enhancers
Ingredients often found in hypoallergenic products
| Ingredient | Description |
|-----------------|-------------------------------------|
| Lamb meat | Easily tolerated protein source |
| Duck | Also rarely triggers allergies |
| Sweet potato | Energy source, grain-free |
| Potato | Hypoallergenic, easy to digest |
| Pea protein | Plant protein, gluten-free |
Thanks to these ingredients, allergic dogs can thrive better and their well-being can increase considerably.
Allergy food sample – why it's so important
Before you buy a large amount of hypoallergenic food, it's a good idea to test your dog with an allergy food sample first. This sample contains small portions of different varieties from the allergy box so you can watch how your dog reacts.
Advantages of the allergy food sample:
- Low risk: you don't have to spend a lot of money straight away on something your dog doesn't tolerate.
- Monitoring symptoms: this lets you check specifically which ingredients are good for your dog.
- Gradual transition: the food sample makes a careful switch to new food easier.
- Gentle adjustment: especially important for sensitive digestion.
Besides diet, the environment can also play a role in allergies. You can find out more in the blog post on Allergies in dogs.

How can you tell whether your dog has a food allergy?
Typical signs are:
- Frequent scratching and biting at certain spots
- Flaky or reddened skin
- Recurring ear infections
- Gastrointestinal complaints such as diarrhoea or flatulence
- Changes in behaviour due to discomfort
If you're unsure, it's advisable to consult a vet, who can check the symptoms carefully and carry out allergy tests. Only then does switching to hypoallergenic food really make sense.
Tips for changing food for allergic dogs
A sudden change can strain a sensitive stomach. That's why you should follow these steps:
- Gradual adjustment: Mix in new ingredients bit by bit and introduce them over 7–10 days.
- Watch your dog closely: How does the skin react? Is digestion stable?
- Test only one protein source at a time: This makes it easier to find the cause.
- Be patient: Allergies don't always improve immediately; it can take a few weeks.
- Don't give treats “on the side”: Even small amounts of the old food can contain allergens.
The allergy box is ideal for making this transition gently, as it offers varied and easily tolerated snacks or food samples.
