My dog has very sensitive skin and I first put flax seed oil on her food – 1 t daily – and that helped a little. Then I put coconut oil (same amount) on and her skin is practically cleared up. Is skin the issue or do they not like their food?

Demi Answered:
Yes,I do think indeed that dogs can be allergic to their food. (My pug ate some rice and she got a bit of rashes) Since dogs are mammals,allergies concerning food is not a surprise. You might have to check where your dog scratches specifically. (My dog scratched her ears,turns out she had an infection,a yeast infection) You have to check really closely where the scratching is. It probably isn't the food,because my dog ate food she was allergic to,and only had a bit of red bumps.

Yes, it is possible. Contact your vet for more detailed explanation,.

Sure can and if you are feeding a food with a lot of grain in it, that could cause it.

A lot of store brands and even some national brands can cause your dog to have an allergic reaction

stop Answered:
yes actually it depends on what their allergic to, i mean that in their are always mixed ingredients in their food and some dogs are allergic to the ingredient in the food, try buying a different brand



Vivian Answered:
dogs can be allergic to things just like humans but maybe its not her food like if you have changed anything around the house like air fresheners laundry detergent and yes her/his food



uliandra Answered:
Just like people, dogs can be allergic to food.

Go out and buy a hypoallergenic food (best bets the vet) use it for a week and see if it helps.
