Still Itching on Apoquel? Here's What the Medication Can't Fix
from Next Level Pet Parent · host Charly & Larry Pruden
If your dog is still scratching, flaring up, or stuck in the loop of medication and prescription diets with no real improvement, this episode is for you. We sat down with Billy Hoekman, VP of Nutrition and Formulation at Green Juju, to talk about what's actually driving dog allergies today and what a real, practical, natural approach looks like. Billy worked through this with his own French Bulldog, Huckleberry, so everything he shares is lived experience backed by over 15 years in animal nutrition. In this conversation, you'll hear why allergies are almost never just a food problem, how genetics, environment, and gut health all compound together, what the three-part protocol looks like that helped Huckleberry go from wearing a cone to thriving, and why patience and consistency matter more than finding the perfect supplement. We also put together a free guide to walk you through the root drivers, common mistakes, and where to start.
