Hi everyone! Long time no speak. If any of yall remember, I adopted a pup a little over a year ago, Bentley. Well when I adopted him, I notice he was breaking out and getting pretty itchy and just unhappy after eating. I took him to the vet, we did an allergy test and find he's got quite the allergy to chicken...of all ingredients...haha. Well I am feeding him Blue Basics Salmon and Potato recipe. But he's just really not seeming to like it anymore.
Does any of yall have any opinions or advice to pass on, on what I should maybe try next? Here's a little picture of Bent for good measure.. (I adopted him as a beagle mix and now a year later he weighs in around 75 lbs, so maybe no beagle haha) Thanks! -Ande @ Little River |

I personally LOVE Fromm. No dog here, just cats, but I feed them the Beef Liváttini Veg formula. My co worker has a dog that has a chicken allergy & she feeds him the Pork and Pea formula. |

Or a really big beagle. Probably some other sort of hound though. I cook for my guys most of the time - hamburger, chicken, and egg are the basic proteins. Sometimes ground turkey and/or pork and beef or chicken liver. To that I add carrots, green beens, canned tomato and yellow beans as the basic veggies with brocolli/cauliflower as options. For a little bit of fill (and the soak up the cooking juices) brown rice and oatmeal(porridge). Nobody turns their nose up at dinner time here - but then they are cockers (lol). Maybe with your dog food add a dash of beef broth (I use chicken broth) to improve the taste/smell/texture? Make sure beef isn't also an issue. |

Molly has a poultry allergy. She is fed Acana, we switch between the Pork and Butternutsquash, Lamb and Okanagan apple and Fish formula. Also raw, just be careful most raw food uses chicken bones as their source of bone (I order all Mollys raw seperatly- meat, organ, and bone and make her complete meal from that - the bone that I get is Bison/Beef/Lamb). I know a friend who has a lab who is allergic to more things than you can shake a stick at. She feeds Taste of The Wild Pacific formula. krisk |

Open Farm pork and ocean fish have NO poultry byproducts and NO grain. The down side is that it is $100/25 lb bag but my dogs do great on it!! |

I feed K9 Kravings which is frozen raw, some homemade raw, and occassional Orijen kibble. I like raw since you can completely control ingredients and quality. K9 Kravings is all human grade ingredients and the bone is ground. |
