Dogs with Allergies

Allergies can effect many different breeds (although small dogs in particular seem to suffer with them). These can be seasonal - effecting the eyes and causing sneezing - or food related skin conditions. Many dogs are allergic (or sensitive) to wheat and corn.

It is important to firstly check if you pet has any of these dog food allergy symptoms - if so, then taking grains out of their diet will often work wonders.

Trying to help my dog with allergies is what prompted me to put together this website. Switching my dog to a grain free raw dog food diet has made him happier and healthier. The constant itching has gone and he now has lots more energy (not sure that is a good thing!).

But it isn't always itching that is the problem. A reader sent me these holistic homemade dog food recipes that he used to cure his German Shepherd mix of tummy troubles.

If you think your dog is suffering then I hope the information on this site can help.
