Dog Food Allergies

Healthiest dog food on market for dog with allergies?

we used to have her on purina puppy chow but she developed sores around her mouth that the vet says is either caused by enviornmental allegies or food allergies so we switched her food to science diet and i was just wondering what other people thought or reccomend! thanks will choose a best answer!

Oh Michelle, Purina and Pedigree are horrible, horrible brands. And believe it or not, so is science diet! Vets learn nothing about nutrition in their education, which is why I began studying canine nutrition over 6 years ago. Please refer to my link below about 5 dangerous ingredients to avoid, there’s more, but it’s a good reference. If the dog has allergies please do not be encouraged to get any brand that has Potatoes. Potatoes are a number one aggravant and I will never understand why manufacturers use it in “allergy” formulas. Many rescues that I pull off death row or am called to help due to poor health have food allergy issues. Hands down, the BEST #1 kibble that I found for these dogs is Holistic Select Duck & Oatmeal radiant health formula. Please know that I tried many over the years and there is absolutely no other kibble that has benefitted the dogs like the HS Duck & Oatmeal. The idea that grain is the problem is really a myth. It’s nutrition and in respect to kibble, the line up of the ingredients (you don’t want peas, potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots in the top 7 ingredients). To explain the effects of ingredient ratio on the GI tract would be too involved for this post so I will just answer your immediate question with the above, proven, suggestion. Your dog would also benefit from supplements, raw meat treats (but FREEZE meat 24 hours first and then allow to thaw before serving. I like to “sear” it a little in a toaster oven before serving. Some dogs need to get used to raw gradually.), and other fresh foods. If she already has shown a reaction, like you described around the mouth) then her immune system is comprised from excessive Candidia. Switching to the recommended kibble alone will definitely help but I can also provide you a list of fresh foods that are beneficial and a list to avoid. Most especially, I highly recommend that you avoid any foods (including treats) found in grocery stores and discount stores like Target. They are simply not quality. You can contact me through my site if you’d like some more nutritional info. I’ll do anything I can to help a caring parent provide their dog the best nutrition possible and really appreciate that you are out there looking for answers.
