More tips!
  • check with your vet to rule out other possible causes.
  • keep to the same diet for around 12 weeks unless we advise otherwise.
  • avoid beef, wheat and dairy – 70+% of food intolerance in dogs.
  • look for novel ingredients- ones your dog hasn’t eaten before.
  • feed sparingly, overfeeding can contribute to a sensitive skin .
  • avoid treats, dental chews and table scraps – vegetables are OK.
  • Every dog is an individual, a food may suit one dog but not another
