Dog Allergy diet that works for my West Highland White Terrier.
It calms his stomach and keeps the dog allergies away.
Dog allergy diet - easy version
CHOOSE ONE MEAT SOURCE TO ADD TO THE KIBBLE:
(choose one)
- 1/4 cup boneless chicken breast or thigh, ground up
- 1/2 large hard-boiled egg, chopped
- I do not recommend beef unless it is human grade and never use beef organ meats, especially the liver. Instead you can use chicken livers from free range chickens
DAIRY
- 1/4 cup cottage cheese
- Use low fat or non fat cottage cheese for older or senior dogs
- Consult your Vet if cottage cheese is OK to give to your dog because of health issues
CHOOSE ONE STARCH SOURCE: Limit this is your dog is overweight
- 1/4 cups cooked potato chopped or mashed
- 1/4 cups cooked rice
- 1/4 cups rolled oats, cooked
SUPPLEMENTS:
- Puréed veggie mix (up to 1/4 cup) cooked (carrots or any other vegetable your pet likes)
- 1/2 Tbs. olive oil, OR 1/2 Tbs. olive oil
- 1 Pet Tab per day or other vet recommended vitamin
REALLY EASY VERSION:
Buy hormone free, skinless, boneless thigh or breast meat. I buy mine at Trader Joe’s in a bag.
The trick is to buy fresh foods or foods that are hypoallergenic and organic. Then as you cook the foods, put aside a little bit of the food (no chocolate cake!) for your dog.Remember no sugar or chocolate for your dog. The chocolate is toxic because the liver cannot process it.
If you feed your dog sugar he/she will get cavities. Pulling an infected tooth will cost lots of money. So leave the sugar out of your dogs's diet.

REALLY EASY VERSION:
- Cook the meat until tender and chill
- Cook good wholesome rice from a source you trust.
- Do not buy anything from China.
- Steam 1 bag of mixed vegetables and chill
- Have ready: powdered bone meal, olive oil and dog vitamin tablets
- In your food processor chop the chicken
- Add the veggie mix, olive oil and bone meal, vitamins and chop slightly
- Pour everything into a individual containers and freeze until needed
So there you have it, my diet for Spooky . As I have said he is 17 pounds and built like a race horse. Very tall and very lean. Adjust this diet for the weight of your dog. Please get your vet’s OK before cooking for your dog.

My dog weighs 18.8 pounds and stands 15 inches at the back. This recipe is good for 1 meal. If your dog is having digestive problems my vet advised many small meals throughout the day.
Try to find a good hypoallergenic kibble. Find one that does not have any corn or wheat or by products. It may take some time for America to wake up and realize that we won’t stand for the junk that is coming out of China and other countries like Canada, whom I always thought were our good buddies.
The new kibble does not taste that good, according to Spooky. So I’ve come up with a way to persuade him to eat his special food and remain healthy.
My dogs love my recipes. When I start cooking the chicken ( If you work you can cook it in a crock pot) my dogs are circling my legs. They sure didn’t circle the bags of kibble!
My dog gained some weight and is looking better than he ever did.
It takes time for the toxins to leave the dogs body after ingesting them for so long. We don’t, at this point, really know how long our pets have been fed melamine, pesticides and other harmful ingredients. So hopefully you will see an improvement each month.
Dog allergies may plague your dog all his life but there are ways to combat it.
