[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 309159, member: 1967"] What a coincidence. I just took our 2-year-old shih tzu to a vet dermatologist because of allergies. We are just beginning an expensive process of finding out what is causing our little one to scratch constantly which lead to a skin staph infection. The vet told me that if it is a food allergy to chicken than she is probably reactive to any poultry. She said that the safest food is the rarest kinds of meat like rabbit or venison. Gracie was on a lamb kibble and I had switched her over to a potato and duck kibble before seeing this vet. Now I am going to look for a venison kibble to try next. We are not sure what is causing Gracie's problem. The vet took scrapings and is testing for mites or ringworm first (this all started in July after being boarded so she thinks it might have been something she picked up while there). If this isn't the solution, then Gracie starts allergy testing. Good luck with your little one! ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
