Question Need Help Finding The Right Food

My sister's dog has bad allergies. She is losing fur around her nose and she chews her two front paws until the hair is gone. They have her on a really poor quality dog food that they think is wonderful because it says "organic" on the label. It contains corn and gluten, which I think is the first thing they should eliminate.

The problem is that the dog has high liver enzymes. Doesn't that mean that she should have a food that is lower in protein?

Please, I am desperate to help this poor girl; she is suffering and it's obvious. What is a great food that will help with her allergies when we don't even know what she's allergic to? My BIL has cancer and cannot work right now and my sister has a job as a cafeteria worker making minimum wage. They can't afford anything extreme right now but they will definately buy a better food. Testing for allergies will cost too much, so they will try to fix her diet first. If that doesn't work I will pay for the testing for them. Please bear in mind the liver issue.

Any help you can give me is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
