Cavoodles can experience food and environmental allergies that often trigger itchy skin, hives and Atopic Dermatitis.

If your dog constantly licks themselves, gnaws their paws and tail, or has chronic ear infections, they may have a food sensitivity, allergy, or intolerance.

A food intolerance is more common than a food allergy, but they often have similar symptoms, so speak to your vet for advice and treatment.

The best way to address your Cavoodle’s allergy is by identifying and avoiding the trigger. If the problem is their food, a vet-directed elimination trial can help to identify the ingredient.

Allergies activate your dog’s immune system, which is mostly regulated by their gut microbiome.

Lyka real food is designed to promote your Cavoodle’s microbiome, improve their immune function and nourish their skin. Each ingredient is selected for its health benefits like anti-histaminic shiitake mushrooms, anti-inflammatory spirulina and omega-3 from fish oil. Lyka meals also include skin-loving zinc, omega-6 from safflower oil and vitamin E oil to boost their skin barrier.

If your dog is not eating their food or seems to be a fussy eater, you’re not alone, it’s a common complaint amongst Cavoodle parents.

Fussiness can be caused by several factors, including anxiety, environment, food cravings, intolerances or allergies, and too many treats. Our Lyka pack have shared their tried and tested tips to help you and your fussy dog enjoy dinner time again.

Dogs have similar tastebuds to ours and a complex and sensitive sense of smell. Appeal to their senses and their appetite with our range of high-protein meals: Beef, Lamb, Chicken, Turkey, Kangaroo and Fish — almost one for every day of the week!

Hip dysplasia and patellar luxation are the most common joint concerns in Cavoodles. Both conditions can be genetic and developmental.

Lyka meals contain anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil and sardines, and superfood antioxidant ingredients to reduce painful swelling and minimise cell damage caused by free radicals.

Your Cavoodle’s meals are also custom portioned to help them maintain a healthy weight to prevent additional strain and joint pain.

Cavoodles can be predisposed to mitral valve disease (MVD) which can be more prevalent along the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel line. MVD can lead to congestive heart failure, so cardiovascular health is important for Cavoodle pups.

A low-sodium diet is usually advised for dogs with MVD, as too much salt increases blood pressure. Processed dog food, like kibble, can contain large amounts of salt

Lyka meals contain powerful ingredients known to support heart health like mushrooms for cardiovascular health, potassium-rich broccoli for a strong heart rhythm, and chia seeds for optimal blood pressure. Lyka only uses controlled amounts of unrefined and unbleached Celtic sea salt for its mineral benefits.

Puppies need food that contains the right amount of nutrients to support their physical and mental growth at a healthy rate.

Contrary to popular belief, puppies don’t need special puppy food if their diet is already nutrient-rich and contains an appropriate amount and balance of calcium and phosphorus, making Lyka the ideal food.

Lyka meals are custom portioned to suit your Cavoodle puppy’s breed and growth milestones, so they get the right nutrients for their age.
