Hi Darleen, I don’t have any personal recipes for dog food, but the MSPCA (Massachusetts SPCA) has some basic recipes for homemade dog and cat food on their website that you can try. Check it out. http://support.mspca.org/site/PageServer?pagename=latestnews_GenericPetFoodRecipes You also can look for any videos by vets that show you how to make your own dog food. I would trust a vet to develop the right recipe for my dog’s health. If you don’t want to make your own food though (it can be very time-consuming), there are “limited ingredient” dog foods that are made with alternate proteins for dogs with food allergies. For example, my dog has issues with chicken, so I feed him Natural Balance Salmon and Sweet Potato Limited Ingredient Diet. If you search for “limited ingredient dog foods,” you can probably find several brands to choose from. Just something to think about if you don’t have the time to make homemade food every day.

We had blood tests done to narrow down what they are . While there are grasses , trees , weeds , the biggest problems are foods . corn , wheat , fish mix , ? , Beef , pork , & milk . I am thinking about making her food in my crockpot ,using turkey as the main protein . Do you have any info about what I can add to this ? We already put green beans , carrots , pumpkin on her dry food . I am suspicious about dry food ingredients . My daughter makes her own food & says it` made a big difference in her dog regarding energy & itching . If you have no info on this can you recommend a website that does ? My vet wasn`t much help when I asked what to include regarding the vitamins & minerals she will need . I would appreciate any help you could give .
