[quote=Anonymous] Have the foods you tried been completely grain and legume-free? My dog gets diarrhea from certain grains and legumes, and I understand it's different from itching, but humans can get eczema attacks after ingesting foods they're allergic to (ex: strawberries), so perhaps it's a food issue. The best my dog has ever felt was on home-cooked food (once after a digestive bout, I cooked ground beef, zucchini and spinach for him). However, we often resort to a grain-free and legume-free kibble for him (it does contain lentils, which apparently he tolerates), because we can't get our act together to cook for him all the time. Perhaps you could try chicken breast and pumpkin puree for a few days, and see what it does to his itching. Chicken breast is usually completely neutral for dogs, and pumpkin regulates their digestive system. [/quote]
