Default Candida Yeast Overgrowth

I see so many posts on skin conditions lately, and maybe it's just striking me because I'm doing a Candida detox but, per a little research, seems be more prevalent in dogs now. Possibly because their diets contain more carbs, grains and sugars?

Thinks to look for...and I'm going to make some assumptions based on what it can do to people as well...

Skin lesions and rashes.
Itchiness
Behavioral changes - Candida can cause a brain fog
Sleep changes - Can cause change in sleep patterns
Sugar cravings - Is your dog into things that they aren't normally?
Acid reflux - is your dog vomiting often?
Leaky Gut
IBS

Here is a list of what it can cause in people. Our dogs cant' tell us if they are having these symptoms so we can only observe
Candida Symptoms
Irritable Bowel & Leaky Gut Syndrome Treatment Diet | National Candida Center

Symptoms for dogs
Dog Yeast Infections (Dog Candida) | Causes and Symptoms of Dog Candida | Natural Rinse for Yeasty Dogs

IMO, if there are recurring issues that you can not get a definitive diagnosis, a Candida detox will cost very little and may be the answer.
