Best Food For Itchy Skin So I know a lot of us have dogs with itchy skin on here. I was wondering if anyone had luck when switching to a specific food if it helped your dogs itching. I have looked over the internet for ideas but I figured with all the people on here with Yorkies someone must have a better answer. Thanks |
The problem is whether your dog is suffering from environmental allergies or food allergies. Buster was having issues so I had an allergy test done using a blood panel. I found out he is allergic to a lot of the food I was feeding him chicken, turkey, duck, salmon, peas and more. I found out later that allergy blood tests are not always conclusive sometimes giving a false positive. Ugh... So I am trying to determine what he is allergic to by feeding limited ingredients to him to find out what his triggers are. It is complicated. I know there is also a saliva test NutriScan Food Sensitivity and Intolerance Test for Cats and Dogs that I am going to have done to see if I can narrow down his sensitivity. Good luck with your yorkie and their allergies. |
It depends what is causing the itchiness. Food allergy's are rare so it's probably environmental and if that's the case changing the food won't do anything. |
