Allergies and food intolerances can often affect a dog’s digestive system. Making good dietary choices for your dog is one of the best ways to avoid digestive upset and support excellent physical and mental health. Keep things simple. Find a natural, wholesome food diet, high in complex carbohydrates especially wholegrains like brown rice, low in protein and fat and free from additives.

Burns Sensitive Pork and Potato is a very popular choice for dogs with sensitive digestion.

Dogs with sensitive digestion are often soothed by natural food free from common allergens.

It is advisable you:

• do an elimination diet – stick to a straightforward diet you can monitor
• avoid beef, wheat and dairy – 70+% of food intolerance in dogs
• look for novel ingredients- ones your dog hasn’t eaten before
• avoid treats, dental chews and table scraps – vegetables are OK
• know every dog is different – e.g. one may not suit chicken but do well on duck
• have a check up at the vet to rule out other possible causes

The beauty of this approach is it will help soothe sensitive digestion – promoting all-round holistic health. In fact we have blogs on digestive issues – see below.
