Coping with Allergic Responses
in dogs.
by Marilyn Brotherton,
Are you one of the many owners who are attempting to cope with
apparent allergic responses in your dog?
Today, there are high
numbers of dogs with skin allergies.
There are some things you must pay attention to starting now!
1. Stop giving any edibles that contain wheat.
This includes dog biscuits,
toast crusts, shared sandwiches, etc., as well as dog foods.
Snacks can be
raw carrots, or you can buy rice flour and make your own biscuits
without wheat flour.
2. Avoid dog foods that also contain Glutens or Brewers Yeast.
Wheat,
Glutens, and Brewers Yeast are the highest allergens for dogs with a
weakened auto-immune system.
3. Do not have any immunizations for at least 6 months after you begin to rebuild the immune system.
They further aggravate a weak system.
4. Avoid stressful situations like intensive training sessions.
5. Don't bathe the dog frequently in the hope of relieving the itch.
Baths
increase itching as a rule.
6. Find a food based on animal protein--not a grain protein.
A complete
amino acid profile is found only in milk, meat, eggs, fish, and cheese.
The grain proteins have incomplete amino acid profiles and do not
support the immune system well because of the 8 missing essential
amino acids.
Most dog foods rely on grain protein, with only a
smattering of animal protein.
The food should also be free of chemicals, dyes, fillers, and artificial
preservatives.

7. Add a hard boiled egg to the diet daily, as well as about 4 oz. raw
beef.
(If you are afraid of hamburger, buy some steak or cheap roast, cut
it into cubes, and freeze it.)
8. I also recommend a double dose of a vitamin/mineral supplement that
contains goodly amounts of the missing amino acids for 30 days, and
continuing for another 60 days of the regular recommended amount.
One supplement that I use for dogs with problems is the Nutravet
Provitabs, also available in the USA from the Robert Abady Dog Food Company or in Canada, from me.
Dogs with the red bellies, feet chewers and itchy ears are on the verge of more
trouble if you don't take the steps now to improve their health.
It takes 3 to 6 months to rebuild cell structure in the body.
So start now!
