Hello Odies_Mama - if you look at the ingredients above - a HUGE (huge!) red flag alone should be the MENADIONE (vitamin K3 derivative) - any food that ever has that in it....steer clear entirely, bc that should tell you (entirely) that the manufacturer just doesn't give a hoot, period. If you want, read more about that little crap vitamin substitute here: http://www.dogfoodproject.com/index.php?page=menadione

Besides that, the main meat source is a "meal", there is "gluten", beet pulp, and soybean - all of which could be allergens. So, your pup's problems could be food related. Also, check out FL here (http://www.pollen.com/home.asp), pollen is off the scale - so it could also be seasonal (or both).

My Marcel is having seasonal stuff w/ pollen this year too - so I've been using some homeopathic stuff and it's been helping - I've been using Proaller (drops) and Notatum (drops). I'm sure there are similar homeopathic rememdies you could get at maybe a Whole Foods or something? But, either way, I'd switch foods it it were me.
