People are reporting cases of widespread diarrhea and health problems  I went for Blue Buffalo after reading about many people using it on YT. Has anyone else experienced/heard of this???
And if this is a problem, any recommendations on alternate foods I can now research?
Just goes to show that companies sponsor a lot of links to hide this stuff. :P

I need some help with this too. I've owned Yorkie's my whole life and never had one with food allergies. I recently switched Nala from Merrick Cowboy Cookout to Blue Buffalo Fish and Brown Rice. She was on Natural Balance before that I she never really ate, switched her to Merrick and same thing wasn't a fan. She LOVES Buffalo Blue, finishes her little bowl in one day! However she has in the last 30 days began the scratching, itching and bites her own hair off her butt. I took her to the vet and they gave me a combo of ketachlor shampoo and temaril. She calmed down for a bit and then when we finished the temaril treatment the scratching begin again. At this point I am assuming its the food since the scratching has begun again but I don't know what else to try. Not once has the vet suggested a food change and Im incurring big vet bills every time I take her. I can hear her all night scratching and I feel terrible. Any suggestion?? It seems everyone had great reviews and Nala loves to eat it but I have to try the food change before I run back to the vet for his next suggestion. (Steroid Shots!!)
