Dogs may have allergy problems which affect their eyes,Dog Allergy Symptoms-Commercial Dog Food Articles ears, skin, and other organs. Unfortunately, our pets cannot tell us what is wrong. However, we can observe the miseries our dogs are experiencing such as scratching, rashes, hot spots, dry skin, loss of hair, ear infections, bad breath, bad stool odors, sneezing and so on. These are very typical dog allergy symptoms which can be triggered by commercial dog food, food allergens, and the environment.

Have you noticed your dog having any reactions to the chemicals or the preservatives which are found in commercial dog foods? These companies may claim that their food is the healthiest and the best, but truthfully, this may not be the case.

Our dogs need a variety of foods which are appropriate for their nutritional needs. Commercial dog food may taste good; however, this is not the test for wholesome food. If the food ingredients are causing the problems, you can be sure the chemicals and preservatives are the culprits.

Dog food is treated like many of our human foods. At one time in our past history a prisoner would be restricted to bread and water for three days. In those days there was real nutrition in the bread and a prisoner could survive on its ingredients. The bread of today would not have you see three days. It does not have whole health nutrition. We would get sick.

Likewise, dog food has been shortchanged. We are blindly trusting dog food manufacturers and companies to do our pets right, however, this is not always the case. And so you and I take our pets to the vet trying to restore their health with medications which in truth is more chemicals and preservatives. This is a vicious cycle.

Chemicals and preservatives are our friends. I am only referring that some of our pets, like us, may be sensitive or allergic to certain chemicals and preservatives and it affects their health and behavior. We need to be alert and try to solve what is ailing our pet.

Other dog allergy symptoms from commercial dog food may lead to:

  • Different types of cancers
  • Liver dysfunction and other organ failures
  • Immune system interruptions
  • Blindness
  • Chronic diarrhea

Packages labeled as food containing natural ingredients or are preservative free may not be completely true. These companies may not consider:

  • The health and condition of meats and vegetables from the original source
  • Names of chemicals, medications, and antibiotics which were used in feed animals
  • Fertilizers, insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides used for growing plants
  • Storage conditions and shipping methods
  • Sanitary methods and handling by employees
  • Cleanliness and sanitation of machinery and building

No matter how many precautions you take we live in a world of chemicals. You breathe oxygen which is a chemical for human survival and you exhale carbon dioxide which is a chemical plants need for their survival.

We just need to identify the harmful chemicals and preservatives and keep them out of our food and water supplies.
