My Chopper was allergic to wheat so we went to Nature’s Recipe Lamb and Rice. I’ve fed all my GSDs that ever since (more than six of them over 10 years). It’s never had a recall.a

Grain free.But…Give a teaspoon of Raw organic coconut oil in food, work up to a tablespoon a day. What it does is control the candida over growth in the gut which is the basis of supposed allergies and sensitive skin issues. Learned all this from a very trusted Dr. Works everytime!!!!

We use Blue Buffalo Basics, grain free, duck and potato. He’s allergic to beef, rice, lamb, sweet potatoes, corn and carrots. Various molds and grass. Spring and fall are rough. He’s currently on a steroid because of itching and biting that resulted in a hot spot. This was after 3 weeks of apoquel. Really wish they would come out with a generic for that.

To keep my shepherds skin from being dry (looking like eczema) I put a little olive oil in their food…this is what the dry foods lack and my shepherds fur and skin are healthy; my dad had me do this.
