Whatever food you are
currently feeding your pet, find a food with a different
source of both protein and carbohydrates. Typically,
food allergies are built up over time as an allergic dog
becomes more and more exposed to a specific ingredient
in your diet. So the best “cure” is to switch the dog to
a new type of food. Since most dog foods are made from
beef or chicken with corn or wheat, this will mean
switching to a rabbit, lamb, fish, venison or duck based
dog food with a rice or potato carbohydrate source. This
is true only of dogs with a predisposition to food
allergies. Non-allergic dogs can continue to eat the
same food all their lives without ever developing an
allergy.
Approximately 10% of all allergies in dogs are caused by
food. The onset of a food allergy can first occur at
anytime in a pet’s life; even dogs as old as 12 have
developed a food allergy for the first time. Pet owners
whose pet may have a food allergy consult a
veterinarian.
