I have to admit this is kind of amusing. I was reading this and was like oh my goodness I just realized our dog has some of the same food allergies as my family. I know she does not handle wheat or corn very well. My girls and I are intolerant to Dairy, wheat, CORN, and soy. With that being said you might want to research what other names your allergens have. Like for corn which have a fairly bad reaction to (not anaphylactic) dextrose,actually any thing that ends in trose. Also, maltodextrin is a form of corn and there are many others. There are also other grains that effect a person or dog if they are allergic to wheat. I cannot do rye because it is a grass grain. We have had no problems with oats and I know for other animals it can help make the coat shiny. I have to live this type of diet for 10 yrs. so you get to know things. It is like second nature to read labels now. I hope this helps and sorry it is so long.
