Pet Wellness & Nutrition: Supporting Skin, Coat, and Joint Health in Dogs & Cats
- 1 day ago

As pet owners, we want our companions to feel comfortable, look healthy, and live a long, happy life. Yet many dogs and cats quietly struggle with dry skin, itchiness, dandruff, dull coats, and even stiffness in their joints. It’s easy to assume these problems are “normal,” especially as pets age — but in most cases, simple changes in nutrition, topical care, and daily support can make a world of difference.
In this guide, we’ll explore how pet wellness and nutrition play a crucial role in whole-body comfort, and how the Glavaderm range from Clipit can help soothe skin, support coat health, and keep pets moving freely.
✅ Why Skin & Coat Health Matters For Pet Wellness
The skin is your pet’s largest organ — and the coat is its first line of defence. When the skin barrier becomes stressed, several symptoms can appear:
Itching or nibbling at paws
Dandruff or flakiness
Dull or greasy patches
Hair breakage or thinning
Odour buildup
Red or irritated areas
These issues often stem from the inside just as much as the outside. Poor fatty-acid intake, allergies, and seasonal changes can all contribute. Healthy hair starts with healthy skin. That’s why Clipit Glavaderm shampoo and Glavaderm spray care for both — not just clean.
✅ Enter Essential Fatty Acids
This is where nutrition makes a huge impact.
Dogs and cats require Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) that their bodies cannot produce themselves. One of the most beneficial is Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA) which is an omega-6 fatty acid, that has anti-inflammatory properties.
GLA:
Strengthens the skin barrier
Reduces inflammation
Helps retain moisture
Supports healthy hair growth
Can improve joint comfort and mobility
And one of the richest natural sources of GLA?
Glavaderm Food Supplement — Nourish From Within
The Glavaderm Food Supplement is formulated for dogs and cats needing internal support for:
✔ Dry, flaky, itchy skin
✔ Dull, brittle coats
✔ Seasonal irritation
✔ Early joint stiffness
✔ General wellness
By delivering cold-pressed Evening Primrose Oil with natural Vitamin E, Glavaderm helps the skin hold onto moisture, supports healthy hair regrowth, and offers natural anti-inflammatory advantages that can ease joint discomfort.
Simply add the recommended dose to your pet’s daily meal — and let the nutrients go to work.
Topical Care Matters Too
Internal supplementation is powerful, but when the skin is already irritated, itching, or flaky, topical support speeds up results dramatically.
That’s where the Glavaderm Spray and Glavaderm Shampoo come in.
Glavaderm Shampoo — Gentle Cleansing for Sensitive Skin
Formulated for pets who struggle with harsh salon shampoos, Glavaderm Shampoo:
Gently cleans away allergens and dirt
Conditions the coat with nourishing plant oils
Balances skin moisture
Reduces static
Helps prevent future irritation
It’s ideal for weekly washes or as part of your grooming routine, especially during shedding and seasonal changes.
Glavaderm Spray — Daily Conditioning & Relief
Perfect between baths, Glavaderm Spray:
Cools and hydrates itchy skin
Adds softness and shine
Reduces coat static and matting
Controls unwanted odours
Can be used daily on hotspots, bellies, armpits, and behind ears
It’s a quick win for pets who struggle more during warmer months or dry indoor heating seasons.
Joint Mobility & Coat Health — They’re Connected
When skin becomes inflamed, the immune system works overtime. This systemic inflammation can contribute to:
Stiff joints
Slower movement
Difficulty getting up
Fatigue after exercise
By calming inflammation with Evening Primrose Oil, Glavaderm can support mobility and improve coat condition at the same time.
Cats Benefit Too
Cats often struggle with:
Stress-related overgrooming
Seasonal dander
Allergy flare-ups
Coat thinning along the spine
Glavaderm products are gentle enough for feline use — always follow dosage guidelines.

This shampoo is fantastic. I used it on a dog suffering with dandruff for years and after the first groom the dandruff was gone! And the coat was very healthy.

I purchased this shampoo for my bitch that was having very dry lank looking hair and had dandruff and scabs on her skin. I had tried a-lot of different shampoos. But his is the one that has cleared up the skin and hair. It has only taken two shampoos to see and feel the difference.
