What is the best dog food for skin allergy, and cost effective?
My lab has the worst case of skin allergy, having lost fur around the eyes and patches on his body. He does not have any form of mange, and has be diagnosed with a possible food allergy. He is already off egg products, and has started venison, but still not much change - HELP!

Maybe Lamb and Rice
Nutro food I think is the best!!!! It is organic and it does not contain ground corn. Ground Corn isn't the best thing for dogs. It's not too expensive, actually, very well priced for the quality. Both my dogs eat Nutro and their skin isn't dry nor itchy, and the fur is so shiny.
Good Luck
I think Precise dog food has a food for allergies.
Well, it says it makes skin and fur more healthy.
My brothers dog has a problem like that they have to buy IAMS lamb and something
Take him to the Vet immediately!
I have had a similar experience with my Dobe. I have been doing a lot of research on the subject, and it seems to be that less than 20% of allergies in dogs are actually caused by food. Environmental allergies are the most common (and the hardest to eliminate - the grass and trees are everywhere) All the information I've gathered indicates that by boosting your dog's immune system, his body can better defend itself against histamines.
Look into using Flax Seed Oil as a supplement to his regular diet. It's cheap, and it seems to be working. I suffer from chronic hives myself, and even I have began using it.
Feed raw you'll be amazed!
james wellbeloved dog food is really good because its hypo alergenic and its only about £20 for a 15kg bag it comes in loads of different flavours as well so thers loads to chose from
ps hypoallergenic means thers nothing in the food that could cause allergys to start. hope this helps
it takes about 2-3 weeks to really she a change… but with any food allergic dog you should make sure that there is no wheat or grains in it. i have the same problem with my rott and i just switched food about a week ago and the person i bought it from said that it should take about 2-3 weeks for any NOTICABLE change.
