Both sources of HIGHLY hypo-allergenic and easily digestible animal protein. The first thing a vet will suggest is to switch to either duck or lamb.
Please do let champion pet foods know, but I am sure that if you follow my advice, everything should clear up if it is a food allergy.
I am completely devastated today I have just completed the "starvation technique" (food 3x/day for 20 mins) and my extremely finicky Yoshi FINALLY ate on a regular basis!!! At first, I tried to feed him Fromm Surf & Turf. He wasn't having it. So I laid out all of the kibble I had & let him choose. He picked the Acana Grasslands. I thought..."Good boy! he went for the good stuff!". He's been eating Acana Grasslands for the past 2 days on a regular basis.

Unfortunately, I've been noticing frequent itching & really runny eyes...big, thick white eye boogers. One of his eyes is even a little puffy. At first, I thought it was from playing in the grass. But with all this talk about the Acana formula change, I'm thinking that these are food allergy symptoms. He's also a little gassy. Not anything major, but enough that I notice a difference. I don't have any experience with food allergies, so I'm wondering if anyone can confirm my suspicions.
