There are many things dogs can be allergic too some food, some environmental allergies, some grass no matter what time of the year, some allergic to human dander, and some allergic to dust. I am sure there is more dogs can be allergic too I just don't know them all. I am not sure how your weather was this year but ours was mild and Callie had her first environmental breakout of this year in February. I imagine if he has been on the same food sense January it could be the food and with out allergy testing the cheapest thing to experiment with is his food. When Callie had her first outbreak my vet suggest a prescription hypoallergenic food to try and if it seemed to work then we would know it was food related and try more food tests but she was still itchy on the food so we stopped using the prescription food. Does your vet have any food like that you could try?
