My 9 year old mixed breed is allergic to chicken. It has been a non stop problem. I am trying to find “chicken free” food that does not contain pea or legumes. I am finding unless it has “Chicken free” on the bag it can contain some type of chicken either meal or fat. It seems the ones I find that contain absolutely no chicken are also grain free. Any suggestions? He does get an allergy shot every 6 weeks that helps but he still chews at his paws.
Patricia AParticipantMary Lynn are you sure that the chicken is the problem? When you eliminate all chicken for a week or more does he stomp the paw chewing? I know it sounds like a simple solution but sometimes even chemicals such as rug cleaners could cause irritation and allergies. Don’t know if you’re interested in grain inclusive. Really can’t find any gran free that doesn’t include some form of peas or legumes. Below is Stella and Chewy’s grain inclusive with just beef and lamb meal .

Not sure about this but wouldn’t a allergy to chicken effect more areas of his body then just paws ? Also I believe he would have stomach issues also?? Was he cleared of a possible yeast problem which I think is more common. Mary Lynn does below fit his description of paws at all?
My Dog Has a Yeast Infection on His Paws: How Do I Treat It?
joanne lMemberPatricia, I thought like you did too, however it can just affect their paws. Why? I don’t know. My friend has the same trouble when her dog eats chicken she licks and bites her paws. Now that she don’t eat chicken, no paw biting. I know it is weird but true.
Patricia AParticipantThank Joanne for info. Just like to throw out there some other reasons that could cause the paw chewing that are easier to treat then changing diet. Just wondering if vets actually can do a allergy test for specifically chicken and why the shots if the solution is just to not give chicken?
anonymousMember@ Mary Lynn L
Just go with the prescription food that I assume your vet recommended. It’s hydrolyzed, therefore the ingredients don’t matter as your dog will not react to them.
Don’t know what you mean by “allergy shots” but that sounds like treatment for environmental allergies.
I would have a serious talk with your vet. Does your dog have food sensitivities? Food allergies? Environmental allergies?
A combination of two or all three or just one?Also, have you considered consulting a veterinary dermatologist? They treat allergies and are the best regarding testing/diagnostics and what would be best for your specific dog.
pugmomsandyParticipantLook at Nature’s Logic and American Natural Premium
Patricia AParticipantanon I didn’t read that her vet recommended any prescription food. If i’m understanding what she wrote, it seems like her vet gave her the idea of a chicken allergy but I would really insist on how her vet came to that conclusion. Also she wrote “He does get an allergy shot every 6 weeks that helps but he still chews at his paws.” I agree with you to take her dog to a veterinary dermo.

pugmomsandyParticipantEarthborn Holistic has a new product line called “Unrefined” that is poultry-free and this and that free.
Nadia KParticipantI just ordered this for my pup as she seems to itch a great deal when eating chicken: https://www.chewy.com/american-natural-premium-turkey/dp/204685
mehmet ali KParticipantSport Dog Food good
shehan DParticipantI have no suggestions for this I have used homemade dog food always…
TeagsmomMemberMy dog has a food intolerance but went through tests to find out. She licks her paws at times but it has nothing to do with food. Iām not sure how any vet can say for certain that a dog is allergic to something without doing any tests. Regardless, Primal Duck is a great option along with Go! Duck (both are sold on Chewy).
anonymousMemberA Veterinary Dermatologist can do a skin test that will tell you exactly what environmental allergies your dog has.
Food sensitivities tend to fluctuate so the blood test is not accurate even when done by a vet.
The mail order hair/saliva tests are a total scam.
Caroline LParticipantHello
