So far this is working awesome- we have an English Springer Spaniel with big, thick, heavy ears and he has had constant ear infections since we adopted him. So far this seems to be keeping the ears very clean and very dry which are key to keeping those nasty ear infections at bay! I am hopeful it will continue!!

I have 3 dogs, 2 small mixed breed and a Belgian Malinois here in FL. Although I've only had them get fleas once in the last 5 years that we've had them, which was quickly handled thank goodness, they get very itchy this time of year. Seems to be from about mid-February till summertime this really affects them, but this year seems to be especially bad for them, one of my small ones in particular. I received this a few days ago and have used it on my dogs everyday so far since it came. It might be a little messy for some to apply, I guess that would depend on how smart the person applying the product is and how well behaved their dog(s) may be. I made my dogs get on an old blanket while I applied it and really had no mess or problems. I actually put a little on the blanket and would rub their paws across it to easily get it into their paws. When done, just fold that side of the blanket back into itself to contain any excess powder that will get back on their coat next time you need to apply.Within an hour after application I noticed it was working beautifully as my problem dog was not incessantly bugging me to scratch him and my other small dog was not chewing at her back legs as she regularly does. Even the big dog seemed relaxed and content, not wanting a 15 min ear scratch, but settling for a minutes worth before going to lie down. So far I've applied the powder in the morning and the effect has lasted through the day and into the evening. They have been itchy again the next morning, although it seems not as severe.3 days of use and it has been working wonderfully, I'm going to keep close monitoring on them in the hope that I can see the need for using it becoming less and less(every other day/once a week/twice a month). In the few days we've used this I'm very impressed and glad I found something made with natural ingredients to help my dogs through their itchy season.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:i bought this to help with my Frenchie’s red, itchy, and slightly smelly skin & paws; he was chewing his paws incessantly. I applied five days in a row, as suggested by the seller. It definitely helped with the smell, but my dog kept licking and chewing on his paws. I saw a little improvement in the discoloration of his skin, especially on his chin and belly.I bought this product under the assumption that I wouldn’t have to use it for a prolonged period of time; I needed something easier to apply over a short period of time . . . like maybe every few days or a week every month. My mistake for assuming. The scent of the powder is not very strong; it’s mild and a bit sweet smelling. The powder is very fine and rubs in fairly easily. Be careful, as the powder comes out generously from the holes in the lid. I made a big mess the first time. Thankfully, I had laid out a towel under my dog before beginning. It’s a bit challenging to get the powder in between paw pads. I ended up putting the product in my hand and using my fist to sprinkle it into the paw crevasses. A skinny spout would be helpful.All things considered, this is a decent product that may be great if you’re ready for the daily routine. I did see some improvements and liked the scent. I still use this powder when he starts getting smelly, but I’m using another topical and vitamin to help with the chewing. To be fair, my dog’s allergies are intense and his health issues numerous. This powder may be perfect for you and your daily routine.

Last season was a horrible allergy season for the dogs although this powder will not cure the problem it dries and heals the sores (we all know) very fast. I was very surprised. Ended up having to get a prescription to kill the actual. Bacteria but I’ve kept up with the powder to keep him dry. I wish I had learned about this a long time ago.

The media could not be loaded. I don’t usually leave reviews, but Coat Defense Daily Preventative Powder has genuinely earned it. My dog was struggling with chronic red paws, persistent itching, and signs of yeast irritation, especially around the feet and folds. We tried numerous shampoos, sprays, and even vet-recommended solutions, but nothing provided consistent relief — until this powder.From the first use, I noticed a huge difference. Here’s what stood out:1. Fast Drying Power:After walks or baths, I lightly dust this on my dog’s paws, and it dries them quickly — no more dampness lingering between the toes that can worsen yeast growth.2. Yeast & Odor Control:Within days, the redness and yeasty smell were noticeably reduced. The powder helped create a dry, healthy environment that made it hard for yeast to thrive.3. Itch Relief & Calming Effect:My dog was constantly licking and chewing his paws, but this powder calmed the irritation almost instantly. It's clearly soothing, and he no longer fusses over his paws all day.4. Versatile Use:I now use it daily not just on his paws but also in other problem areas like under his belly and in skin folds. It’s great as a preventative step and works as a dry shampoo too — perfect between baths.5. Safe and Natural:I love that it’s non-toxic and talc-free. It’s comforting knowing I’m not exposing my dog to harsh chemicals, especially since he has sensitive skin.Final Thoughts:This powder is now a staple in our routine. It helped clear up an ongoing issue that caused both my dog and me a lot of stress. If your dog suffers from yeast infections, red or irritated paws, or needs something to stay dry and clean between baths, I absolutely recommend Coat Defense. It’s worth every penny.
