Allergies

One of my friend has allergie problems that developed after his recent dog purchase. He dosnt have any sort of skin issues just simtoms similar to sinus problems. Is there any relationship to allergies and the food he eats. The dog is eating solid gold kibble. Would it help to go to a higher protein food like Evo. Any suggestions or advice.

Thank you

Re: Allergies

There is likely no connection to your friend's allergies and his dog's food.

Your friend is likely allergic to dog dander.

Yep, my sister-in-law is allergic to my dog... but not her friends dog (poodle).

What your friend can do is try allergy shots, (they are FDA approved) and are suppose to make the person no longer allergic.

Here is a link you can refer him to for more info: Allergies - Allergy Shots

good luck!
