skin rash

image.webp I'm having the same problem. I feed premium edge large puppy formula. My breeder said it was good and it's highly recommended on dog food advisor. I also feed coconut oil. We got an antibiotic shot and one round if antibiotic tablets. I am spraying with prescription antibacterial spray. It looks a little better but not significant. I hope some of the advice you received can help me too.

Id try switching him to a different food. How often do you bath to many baths will cause skin irritation. Is it itchy? And from the time you got her has anything changed or is this how she has been ?

It started in June, he is 7months now. I rarely bathe him, we just brush him. My breeder used proplan. Feed store only carries diamond products. They have totw, but not lg puppy formula. I read to spray with diluted lister one, I really am curious. He doesn't scratch or seem bothered by it, but I know it has to mean something is going on.

Dobermans aren't large dogs. I feed taste of the wild and have had great success on it. You don't need large puppy formula. TOTW is a all life stages brand.
 
My black and tan coon hound was allergic to rice , my next step.
Oklahoma and I seem to have the same problem and we both fed pro plan!?!?

I didn't realize that. Are any of the totw formulas better? Is grain free ok for a puppy?

We always do grain free. When we started Ares on we gradually transferred him TOTW puppy formula prairie he loved it but the transition was slow he has a sensitive stomach. Now we got him a new non puppy formula pacific stream.Our boy is 7 months as well and has done fantastic on it. He really like this flavor I won't lie though he's a little more gassy then usual hahaha
 
I went through a few different brands, trying to find the right food for him. He was gassy on them all except ACANA. Pro-biotics helped a little

Lol I'll try the pro biopics :) thanks for the tip:) what flavor acana ? I'll try that next after I run out of TOTW :)
 
We've does well on both that we've tried
Grasslands Regional Formula Grain-Free &
Pacifica Regional Formula Grain-Free
 
More expensive than TOTW but for us it is worth it. The packaging is vacuum sealed. I think that keeps it more fresh once in the bag. A different material for the bag too. Not sure what to call it but it seems to be kind of aluminum. Sort of like the SunChips bags.

I'll definitely look into ordering it after we're done with the newest bag of TOTW :)

You might have to look at what you are treating your pool with. I know I am allergic to chlorine and get a terrible rash if I go in a pool with it.
