I have a three year old Great Dane. When we got her we she had really bad pustules all over her skin. We worked with several vets and discovered she had a food allergy to chicken. Our vet put us on royal canine but any time we tried to transition off she would start getting allergies again. I started thinking that maybe there was some by product or something that gets into the food that was causing this. Anyhow, after about a year we found a food that she wasn't allergic to and unfortunately it's a grain free food, Pro Pac Ultimates Overland Grain-Free Red Beef & Potato. At the time the vet just said it was fine to use since we couldn't find anything else, but I've been worried about heart disease from grain free diets. In my ignorance I've been adding scoops of cooked rice to her food because I thought the problem was the grain, but now I've read the thread and realize it's the other ingredients in the food. I'm looking for a new dog food one that preferably has grains and will keep my dog happy and healthy. She has a very high activity level, she runs around every day we walk a few miles a day together, and we even do agility (though much slower than the other dogs). I was thinking about these foods Annamaet option formula Natural balance beef and brown rice Earthborn holistic ocean fusion It's one beef food and two fish foods. I was thinking about fish because we give her fish treats and cod skins and she loves them and doesnt seem to react. On the other hand, when we were doing the dog food dance a few years ago she reacted to beef foods, but since we are on a beef food now it seems logical to try. Am I thinking about this correctly? Is there another thing I should try? I just want to do what's best for my dog.
