The groomers recommend a salmon based food with no chicken or beef as ingredients. It works great but of course theyre rarely in the grocery stores.
When I want to get food I want to get food for all of us dammit.

Check out chewy.com or entirelypets.com .

Chewy is phenomenal and I buy 95 % of what I need for my dogs here.

Is there a local veterinarian (in greater BR area) that specializes more so in skin conditions for dogs?

I have a purebred yorkshire terrier and he is allergic to a lot of things. I look at the "nutrients" label of a lot of products, but I don't want to risk it with him. So, I stick with Benadryl. Since he is a yorkie (smaller size dog), I found a a chart like this one https://www.anydogrescue.org/benadryl-for-dogs/ which I printed out so that I have with me, and this chart is similar to others online, which my veterinarian gave approval of.

Your Denver plant makes everyone's morning commute unbearable. So bad that I now only use Kirkland Signature dog food.


















I'm kidding, I've only used Kirkland. But damn, that plants stinks to high hell.

Costco sells an organic salmon based dog food. I think it's like $35-40 for 35 pounds.

We used to bathe my dog in an oatmeal shampoo we got from our vet that really seemed to help him. I'd talk to your vet about it, especially with the change in season coming soon

I had the same problems with my German Shepherd and switched him to raw feeding. Coat and overall health has improved noticeably from feeding TOTW.

My dog didn't seem to have allergies until this spring/summer. After a few rounds of steroids that have worked for a few months we are now doing apoquel (or however you spell it). Ist is helping a lot.
