    Oops, edit – I am referring to the NB Syngery, above.

    The NB definitely sounds like a good choice based on your recommendation and the review it gets. My problem is that I live in Canada and have not been able to locate it, thus far.

    Hound Dog Mom, are there other foods for puppies and pregnant moms that in your experience you would recommend as well?

    Thank you for your help!

    PS my allergy specialist has pointed out that many species are genetically closely related, eg., cattle to bison to deer to sheep…. Same applies to fowl, chicken to turkey to duck, etc.
    If your dog has an allergy to chicken, best to avoid all fowl protein sourced foods.

    I guess after numerous stubborn cases, this is why allergy specialists recommend rabbit or kangaroo now.

    I have French Bulldogs, too, we have 6. And yes, i’ve heard in the French community over the years that there is a higher ratio of light coloured coats (cream, fawn, pied) with skin allergies than the darker ones, such as brindle.

    WHAT WORKED FOR MY FRENCHIES: bathing with Nizoral shampoo (at the drugstore), and Natural Balance Potato and Rabbit. This food has worked well – it is a single protein source food, so it really is only rabbit (many other so called single protein source foods have, chicken, turkey, beef, etc. added to it, all of which can be allergy triggers. This food is just the rabbit. They are now coming out with a sps. kangaroo kibble as well.

    Best of luck! 🙂

    Hi Linda

    I am searching for the same info, for a newly pregnant French Bulldog. She has been on Natural Balance Rabbit because of a very mild allergy (the stud has no allergies what-so-ever), but i don’t see a puppy/pregnant bitch formula in any of their range.

    I swear by Acana and Orjen for all of my other dogs, but would still appreciate also hearing from other forum members for food recommendations for pregnant bitches.

    Can anyone out there tell us your reproductive food faves?

    Thx
