🌿 Natural Remedies for Common Yorkie Issues
(Itchy Skin, Tummy Troubles, and More—Handled Gently and Effectively)
As a Yorkie mom and a wellness advocate, I know firsthand how sensitive these little pups can be. Their small size, delicate skin, and often-finicky digestion mean even minor issues can feel like a big deal.
But here’s the good news: There are gentle, natural remedies that can make a world of difference—and I’ve seen them work with my own dogs.
Here’s how we approach common Yorkie concerns at Setareh Yorkies, using natural solutions and supportive routines.
🐾 1. Itchy, Irritated Skin?
Yorkies are known for their beautiful coats, but sensitive skin can get in the way. Whether it’s environmental allergies or dry skin, here’s what I turn to:
✔️ PawTree Salmon & Pollock Oil
Packed with omega-3s to nourish skin and promote a glossy, healthy coat. I add this to their food daily for a natural skin-support boost.
✔️ Regular Grooming + Natural Shampoos
I use a gentle, hypoallergenic shampoo free of sulfates and harsh chemicals. Oatmeal or aloe-based options help calm irritation.
✔️ Bathe Less, Brush More
Overbathing can dry out their skin, so I opt for weekly brushing and only bathe when necessary—with lots of cuddles after!
🐾 2. Tummy Troubles & Sensitive Digestion
From loose stools to gassy bellies, I’ve seen it all. A stable digestive system is key to overall health, and here’s what helps:
✔️ PawTree Gastro Pro Plus
This daily supplement is a lifesaver—probiotics, digestive enzymes, and immune support in one little scoop. It keeps their gut balanced and bloat-free.
✔️ High-Quality, Simple Diet
I feed my Yorkies a fresh mix of cooked ground beef, rice, peas, carrots, and spinach—with PawTree Chicken & Oatmeal dry food available throughout the day. No fillers, no junk—just clean fuel for little tummies.
✔️ Limited Treat Ingredients
We stick to single-ingredient chews (like dehydrated liver) and avoid anything with artificial colors or preservatives.
🐾 3. Anxiety & Nervous Energy
Yorkies are incredibly loyal and attached to their people—so when routines change or new people visit, anxiety can creep in.
✔️ Daily PawTree Chillax Supplement
A blend of calming herbs like chamomile and L-theanine, this soft chew helps take the edge off during storms, grooming, or separation.
✔️ Routine & Safe Spaces
My Yorkies thrive with predictability. I keep a calm daily rhythm and give them a cozy, quiet space where they can retreat when overwhelmed.
🐾 4. Dental Health (Without Brushing Battles)
Let’s be honest—brushing Yorkie teeth is a struggle. Instead, I focus on daily prevention:
✔️ PawTree Dental Sticks + Plaque Control
These work together to reduce plaque buildup and freshen breath. No wrestling with toothbrushes required!
✔️ Chewing Helps!
Natural chews like bully sticks or antlers not only satisfy the need to chew but also help scrape away tartar naturally.
💛 Final Thoughts
Yorkies are little dogs with big needs—but with the right natural support, they can thrive in every way. I believe in treating the root, not just the symptom. Whether it’s itchy skin, tummy trouble, or stress, gentle, daily care is where healing begins.
