If it is not a food allergy, there are other healthy supplements that may be able to boost their immune system so the allergies are less.
The perscription food is pushed by vets because of their relationship and money they get from them. Google it.
I don't mean to be so blunt, but many people rely on their vet for nutrition information. They didn't go to school for school for it (I know a few vets and asked what they learned in school about dog nutrition- pretty much nothing). They go to school for shots, surgery, etc. |
honestly i see your point but in some cases it works as my dog was very sick for a year off and on from pancreatitis and ibd cost me 10k and now he has been on vet food purina ha for 4 years no vomitting and it was the last resort so sometimes it works and my dog will get nothing but this forever after the horrible year we had with him
