People around us may have some eating seafood foods such as fish, shrimp, crab, etc., and their bodies will suffer from abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting, or unbearable physical reactions. Some people will develop rhinitis or asthma after inhaling pollen or dust. Some people will experience shock after injecting penicillin.
Like humans, some dogs are also allergic to some foods. For example, some dogs are allergic to beef, some dogs are allergic to pork, and some dogs are allergic to cereals.
If you find that your dog is allergic to a type of dog food, it is best to stop feeding the dog this type of dog food immediately. You can also use the elimination method to determine which ingredient the dog is allergic to.
What are the symptoms of allergic reactions in dogs?
When a dog has an acute allergic reaction, itching, and in some serious cases, shortness of breath and even death from shock.
When a dog experiences chronic allergic reactions, there will be papules, itching, and hair loss on the skin. Some of them are accompanied by chronic otitis (red, swelling and oozing in the ears), vomiting and diarrhea.
After determining the allergen of a dog, try to feed it with hypoallergenic food. If you are allergic to cereals, you can choose cereal-free dog food. Such dog food does not contain corn, wheat, cereal shells and other cereals, and is made of low-carb compounds such as vegetables and fruits as raw materials.
Most dogs are not allergic to food, but some individual situations are not ruled out. If you find that your dog has abnormalities, pet owners must observe carefully and deal with it in time.
