What brand of dog food do you use? My last dog had serious allergy and kidney problems even though we were feeding him expensive lamb and rice formula dog food.

Try this: ROYAL CANIN Veterinary Diet™ canine Potato and Venison Formula and canine Venison Formula are highly palatable, digestible, complete, and balanced diets for the adult dog. Venison is the only source of protein and potato is the only source of carbohydrate.

My dog had awful allergic reactions to all other dog food(red itchy feet that he would chew causing bleeding), and I finally tried this stuff. Problems solved. My other dog got a taste of it and refused to eat her food. Now they both are on the diet. Cost-- about $100.00/mo for both of them, or 42.00 bucks for a 20lb bag.

We were originally feeding this dog (a Viszla) Science diet, but the trainer recommended Nutra-grain because he said that our dog was too hyper and he thought that the Science diet may have been too rich for him. So, we changed his diet, he didn't like it at first, but he got used to it. We have never fed him anything else, no table scraps, nothing, because our other dog had irritable bowel syndrome and got sick everytime he ate anything but his regular lamb and rice formula kibble. So, while I don't think that this recall will affect us, I don't want this dog to develop the allergies that our other dog had.
