My dog has a food allergy and can not have corn, wheat, or soy and I am trying to find a good dog food for him but will also not hurt my bank account. Shitzu male 25lbs, 9 years old.
What food is appropriate will depend on how sensitive your dog's GI tract is to these ingredients. There are some over the counter foods without these ingredients in them. A low cost version available at Tractor Supply is the 4Health Salmon and Potato formula: https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/4health-salmon-potato-formula-for-adult-dogs-5-lb-bag?cm_vc=-10005 Another option available at most pet stores would be Purina Proplan grain free formula such as the Savor Turkey and Chicken formula https://www.proplan.com/dogs/products/savor-grain-free-adult-shredded-blend-turkey-chicken-formula#ingredientsandguaranteedanalysis However, over the counter foods are made in facilities that produce many different foods so contamination of a food with an ingredient not on the label is a possibility. If the food allergy is severe, then a prescription diet available from your vet may be necessary (these special foods are made in a facility where contamination doesn't occur). These foods are u

I bought my dog Rachel Ray grain free salmon dry food, unfortunately he was allergic to it. I also bought him nature's recipe salmon grain free dry food and he is always thirsty. I don't know what else to buy him. Which food do you reccomend?
Hi there. I normally recommend feeding a food like Royal Canin, Iams, or Purina. These companies have a great deal of research behind their diets to prove that they are complete and balanced, and provide appropriate nutrition for whatever age or life stage the food is labeled for - puppies, adult dogs, seniors, etc. There is no particular benefit to feeding a grain-free diet unless your dog happens to be allergic to some type of grain, which isn't very common - most food allergies in dogs are to proteins such as chicken, beef, etc. If you think that Gary has food allergies, you may want to talk to your veterinarian about doing a diet trial with a prescription hypoallergenic diet such as Purina HA or Hills z/d.

I have a 12-yr. old Jack Russell Terrier who apparently has some digestive issues. Her stomach gurgles loudly at times - not frequently but occasionally. When this happens, she eats grass. I just heard that no grain foods may cause heart disease. Wha
Yes, you are correct that there is concern that no grain foods may potentially linked to heart disease, and the FDA is now investigating that. Personally, I recommend feeding Gypsy Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, or Iams. I feed my own dogs Iams and they love it. I hope this helps!

My dog has been raised on grain free foods does this mean she will have a harder time if I wanted to introduce grains into her diet? How can you tell if dogs are intolerant to grains, what are the signs or symptoms? Thanks!
No. Most dogs handle grains very well. In fact most food allergies are to a protein source such as beef or chicken. If you dog does a food allergy if some kind, it typically shows up with itching and hair loss. A small percentage can have GI symptoms but that is the minority

Due to the recent FDA research on grain free food I am looking into switching my Shih Tzu/Maltese mix from Whole Earth farms grain free to something different. What would you recommend is a good, healthy brand for a small breed dog who is 4 and does
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! As you have probably noticed there are plenty of diets in the market. There are a few that stand out in my opinion in terms of quality and palatability. I really like the Science Diet, Royal Canin and Purina Pro Plan products. A diet that I have found to be of very good quality, affordable and dogs love is the Purina Pro Plan shredded blends. You can find that at your local pet store or online. Otherwise any of the diets of the previously mentioned brands would also be good choices for Harley. Good luck!
