(More customer reviews)We adopted a sweet dog from a local animal rescue. His underbelly was red, inflamed looking, and he was constantly scratching. His vet history included chronic/repeated ear infections. Considering the high cost of vet bills, and our desire to give this sweet dog a good life, I spent a few hours reading online about chronic canine ear infections & skin disorders.
I did not realize that so many brands of pet food had corn and other grain type products included (and often the primary ingredient). Most people don't have corn or wheat as their primary food source, so I find it odd that pet food would have.......
From what I read on several sites, allergies to those ingredients can cause skin issues and chronic ear problems.
After a couple of expensive vet visits, 2 months on expensive Advantix flea treatment, 6 weeks of ear antibiotics (twice daily administration) and a month of oral antibiotics, I decided to switch to a different food.
Within 3 days, our dog's underbelly skin became a normal, skin color. The ear infection cleared in about two weeks (confirmed by vet visit & ear swab labwork). The constant scratching went away. He is like a different dog now, and I attribute a large part of that to his feeling better and having more energy since he's not scratching or having hurting ears.
The cost of this dog food is WELL worth it to me, and my rescue pet. Having less vet care alone will easily cover the cost of this food. We have tried the other flavors, and he enjoys them as well.
