What is a good food for food allergies?

[TachaYorkies]

you might want to look at a grainless food, and i would cut those treats! they could very well be the problem...???

We feed Orijen, and we give our own home cooked treats... which imo they prefer! even though they would love a bacon strip it was causing allergy problems for us so we switched to grainless food and treats.

Good luck!

Mind you, she was also on Hydroxyzine to tame her itching - and she STILL itched. It got to the point where I just couldn't take it anymore...and I know she couldn't either. I switched her over to Natural Balance Duck and Potato and it has LITERALLY been a miracle for us. In all honesty, I see her itch once a DAY or LESS. And I'm not joking. She is doing extremely, extremely well on it. She and I both couldn't be happier

They also have other Grain Free Allergy formulas such as Sweet Potato and Fish and Sweet Potato and Venison

I also highly recommend the Natural Balance Duck & Potato in the Small Bite size.

Oh, you are talking about the Natural Balance Rolls I personally haven't tried them (since they are not Grain Free) but there are many here that use and love them.

It's so frustrating not knowing what is making them itch.

Girl, I'm tellin' ya....try one of the Natural Balance Allergy Formulas Tate had the ITCHIES like you wouldn't even BELIEVE She scratched all the hair off around her poor little nose/mouth and always got infections there...it was terrible She scratched so MUCH and so HARD that she LITERALLY sounded like Thumper when she was itching I always called her Mommies Little Thumper She is also on Hydroxyzine, however I am going to stop giving this to her and see how she does being that she hardly EVER itches anymore since being on NB. I've also done some research on Solid Gold Seameal and am going to be starting her on that next week which is also supposed to help tremendously for itching and it is great for dogs with allergies - hopefully with the Natural Balance and Seameal combined, we can TOTALLY knock out the itches once and for all and say GOODBYE to that darn Hydroxyzine After all, I'd MUCH rather give her relief from itching by providing her with a food that she can tolerate and an all natural supplement rather than drugging her up with prescription medications all the time
