You have no doubt wondered what the best food for your dogs allergies is.
You may have also even realized how complicated a question this really is.
The simple answer is that there is no best food for a dog with allergies, but you may be able to locate a food that is the best for your dog's allergies.
Dry dog food has many ingredients in it.
Unfortunately some of the main ingredients in dry dog food are the ones that are causing the allergic reaction.
The main things to look out for are the meats, grains, and dairy products in the dogs food.
Beef seems to be an ingredient that causes a lot of allergic reactions.
You do not need to worry about the colorings and preservatives when it comes to allergies however.
It is also important to be careful what human foods your dog eats.
Large breed dogs like great danes and greyhounds are especially sensitive to common foods.
I am sure you, like me and most other dog owners, are guilty of letting your dog clean up messes in the house.
This can be very dangerous to a dog with hypersensitivity to some foods.
If your dog shows any signs of allergies at all you should avoid this.
Even dogs without allergies might show sensitivity to items of human food like tuna, cheese, sausage, grains and countless other foods humans eat often.
The way to find the food that would be best for your dog is with a elimination diet.
This is much easier than it sounds.
You simply take your dog off of all of the foods your dog is eating and switch them to something they have never had before.
This can be a hypoallergenic food or an organic food made with ingredients you know the dog has never had such as duck or rabbit.
You can even make the dog food yourself, such as a diet of rice and venison.
Once the dog's allergy symptoms have completely subsided you can add back in its other foods, if the symptoms come back you will know that the ingredients in that food caused the allergic reaction.
