If your dog gets...
- itchy skin
- digestive upset
- or recurring ear issues
while eating a chicken-based kibble, itās easy to point the finger at chicken but there may be more to the story.
Kibble can contain multiple proteins, starches, fats, flavourings, preservatives, vitamin and mineral premixes, and other ingredients, making it difficult to know exactly what your dog may be reacting to.
Thatās one reason we love keeping things simple. With raw feeding, you can see the real, recognizable ingredients going into your dogās bowl and have more control over what youāre feeding.
Some dogs thought to be sensitive to chicken may tolerate fresh, minimally processed chicken just fine. A true food allergy is something to discuss with your veterinarian and properly investigate rather than assuming one ingredient is the culprit.
Before crossing chicken off the menu for good, take a closer look at the whole bowl.
