[rawfeeding] Re: My Dog is having Allergies on Raw, Can anyone hep! PLease!

Hi:

First, I don't know the book, but if it suggests veggies and
supplements like the ones you mentioned, it isn't the way this list
recommends and those alone could be the root of your problem along
with much too much too soon.

You can drop all the supplements and veggies and just use salmon oil
caps or liquid. Then you can feed just one protein source to see how
they do on it and if the allergy stops. Get a whole chicken and hack
it up into meal sized chunks, or get a bag or two of chicken quarters
and hand one out to each dog. If chicken doesn't work, try another
protein, like beef, lamb, goat, pork, etc. Ground anything is much
more of a risk especially if you don't know what's in it exactly.
Itching could also be an allergic reaction to Frontline.
