I'm in a bit of a dilemma. My 2 year old Saint has been exhibiting signs of a possible food allergy. We are currently feeding Innova, mixture of kibble and wet. He has had some skin issues on and off which are pretty much under control with a spray and powder from the vet at this point. She mentioned that our next step would be a food trial, which is fine but to be honest .. I don't know how I feel about the prescription diets. Before anyone mentions it, let me just say that at this time feeding raw or even cooking for him is not really an option due to food storage space and such.
Further than the skin issues, my concern is his vomiting. Over the past few months it seems to be occuring about once a week. I am well aware that this can be another sign of diet sensitivity.
I came across Blue Basics Turkey and Potato for large breed adults. It has limited ingredients. No corn, wheat, dairy, soy or eggs. Now of course, there is turkey in his current diet and in this one so it could potentially be the source of the problem but I think eliminating the other things first may be easier.
He is a very finicky eater and liked Blue Buffalo when on just a regular version of it in the past, but had horrible gas and soft stools.
Any suggestions other than this brand are welcome as well.
