0.5 tbsp sunflower oil
1 lb turkey
0.5 cup chopped kale
4 cup brown rice cooked
Serving 1 cup twice daily per 20 lbs of dog
Serve for 8 weeks. Swap out protein if allergy persists until you find the allergy.
Dr says supplement with krill oil to reduce itching in another video.
Dang I followed the other video he made and I could swear he said 1 too 11/2 cups per day for 20lb
The other video he also said 1 cup of brown rice to 1lb of protein, now it’s 4 cups of rice?
@@jocerod123I think it’s because these are different recipes. The other video uses carrots & eggs, this video uses kale with no eggs.
FYI, you’re missing the 1T of sunflower oil after cooking/cooled down a bit.
Thank you for making this video. It is very helpful! Now I can figure out what is making my pup itch so much
Dr Jones is a saviour to dogs and dog owners!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us 🇺🇸
Any time!
Working like a charm. I have done so many homemade dog food and my dog never liked them. I really didn’t think he be eating this diet, but now he looks forward to meal time. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH! I substitute brown rice for quinoa as he never liked rice. It’s affordable too! BTW my neighbor dog comes up by me and I feed her the diet and now she won’t eat her regular food lol.
Thanks for sharing this video ❤️👌
Welcome
I am so thankful for your channel and expertise.
I recently got a silver lab 2 months ago. she is 4 months now. We didn’t know much about feeding a puppy so we went with Purina Pro plan- Chicken flavor and wanted to work our way to me cooking her meals 100%. She did not take well to the kibble as her itch began there. We suspected she might be allergic or have an intolerance to an ingredient in the kibble so I started my research.
I lessened the kibble amount and incorporated: chicken, turkey and beef with sweet potato, rice, broccoli. She was scratching non stop and even whining while scratching. She also began having diarrhea. It was getting worse.
She was clearly uncomfortable and allergic to something in either the kibble ingredients or the protein. She developed red spots on her chest and her armpit area which she scratched raw. I started the 1:1 ratio of apple cider vinegar and coconut oil like you mentioned in a previous video which helped! Made her own shampoo with Castile soap, green tea, and lavender oil like you mentioned in another video. The shampoo eased the itch a bit, but only temporarily. The itch continued and was beginning to take a toll on her sleep and ours.
Fast forward to 3 days ago when I found this video decided to do a complete reset on her food.
We threw away that junk Kibble, gave her aller-tec before sleeping to ease the discomfort and fed her only turkey, rice & sunflower oil for now (I’ll add veggies once her skin is fully healed). I eventually want to get away from the rice but that’s beside the point. In only 2 days time, her diarrhea was gone, her skin is healing and she isn’t scratching like before. I am so happy and she looks relieved for the first time since we got her!
Thank you so so much! My anxiety was beginning to skyrocket trying to figure out what was her deal and now we are seeing progress with this elimination diet. Eventually we’ll try other proteins. We suspect she was allergic to chicken, but only time will tell. We appreciate you Dr. Jones ♥️
Ps. You mentioned sticking to this for 8 weeks. Can I add the Bee Propolis to her diet in the mean time? Or wait it out?
Thank u, Dr. Jones, I have a 15 YO male Yorkie who is missing most of the black hair on his back. My vet says "no food allergies" but I wasn't sure. Now I remember that about 25 years ago I had another male Yorkie with the same problem. After lots of testing, etc., I took him to U of Davis Vet School to see the derm specialist there (Dr. Ihrke) and it turned out he had follicular dysplasia, "bald man's disease". Thank u for relieving my mind.
I have three Tibetan spaniel and to have diarrhea so I made your recipe for and gave them each 2 cups and they Loved it you are a lifesaver hopefully they will stop scratching and messing with their feet they do not have fleas thank you so much
Wonderful!
I found a hunter that I could get venison or bison for the different protein & used quinoa for her carb. My dog can not eat turkey, duck or lamb but can have chicken. She’s been on her chicken & quinoa (with veggies & a supplement) for 14yrs & no allergies. This is all from your information that long ago...thank you Dr. Andrew!
Welcome!
What supplement do you give to your dog?
Thank you ❤️❤️
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you!!
You're welcome!
My dog and I are 12 days into your allergy elimination diet. It's going really well. The almost daily vomiting has stopped. He still tries to lick his paws. However, this is already reducing. Thank you! I was at my wits end. By the way, he loves the food. I am finding that with some weekend batch cooking, it's easy to feed Noah this way. I am tempted to continue when the 8 weeks are up.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Any recipe combo suggestions for regular feeding? I’m currently doing the one for skin allergies with mine but would like to expand on it and also feed the rest of the dogs in the house. Are there any recipes with meats that I can buy in bulk at a butcher that you recommend? Or at least a list of preferred combos for balance?
THANK YOU!!!! I have two puppies and one has yeast ear infection and both puppies have been itching. I’m trying this and sticking to it.
You're welcome, glad it's helpful
Great.... thank you.
You are welcome!
Thank you,
You are welcome!
My baby Copper is 17 years old this year. Last year he had a inguinal hernia surgery that truly changed his immune system. Shortly after his long recovery, he started to develop what we thought were hot spots, but sadly even after the antimicrobial and antifungal shampoos and sprays the issue continued. Today, I got news from our vet that his skin test came back and read he had a Staph infection. Luckily, a week ago his fantastic vet team shaved his now large areas of infections and I was able to see his skin change immediately after he eats his 4 ingredient chicken wet food. I thought I was going nuts or just overthinking it. Folks, we had been given him more of the chicken recipes since he favored them most! Today I thought, well maybe it was the type of chicken they put in their wet food, so I made my own chicken, mixed it with green beans and chicken bone broth. Before he ate his skin was a normal beige color, but almost immediately after he finished his homemade organic greens, pasture raised chicken meal his shaved areas TURNED BRIGHT PINK/RED and BECAME SUPER HOT! It was the DARN CHICKEN! I knew it, I knew it had to be internal and moreover his diet. Yes he got a Staph infection because of the constant licking but we were just treating the symptom, not the root cause! I am not an expert at treating anyone other than furry baby but mine, however I had to share my experience for other pet parents to read. My furry baby has been with me for 17 years, he is walks well because we give him weekly laser therapy treatments, he eats the cleanest food we could find for dogs, and he is happy boy. I hope this story helps your furry family and tomorrow we will be making this recipe which is great because he loves ground turkey!
Thank you for sharing ❤ I am about to start this allergy trial. I’m gonna start with the ground turkey too 😊. I think my fur baby is allergic to chicken!
Im glad you found a solution! I just started my puppy on the elimination diet too! We also think she’s allergic to chicken because as soon we eliminated it her itch and skin got so much better! Did you try other proteins?
@@Dwl7842 I found that ground bison, turkey and salmon were really good for him too.
thanks
Great video😍
Thank you! 🤗
Thank you and GOD bless :)
Same to you!
thank you dr jones for a good video
You are very welcome
Great video question can I use zucchini instead if I ran out of kale in my garden? Thank you
After losing 2 rescues last year, you give me faith to get another. They had a great life but always wondered what else we could have done. They were both 13, but was a hard last few weeks. Thank you so much❤️
So sorry for your loss 🥀 it’s just like loosing family when we loss a fur baby ❤️
Thanks- sorry for your losses.
My sympathies for your immeasurable losses...my hubby made me go to a shelter...first signs of life since his 3rd stroke we had our dog pass after 13 yrs from a battle with cancer...I didn't want another shelter dog...but he came alive talking about it.We ended up with a starved little dog who lost two still born pups..yes someone dropped her off in active labor...she chose me as I did my best to ignore her...and this little starved matted stinky creature plopped in my lap and so I had been adopted ...she had a few issues but I read volumes and educated myself. Love and persistence can move mountains...she came home curled around hubby in his hospital bed like she belonged beside him and he lit up....She now is part of our family ..she retrieves his dropped cell or pens...sometimes she will bring him a sock to write with😉 and she encourages physical therapy in that he will throw the ball from his weak side...Our house is happier..Birdie yes a dog named Bird has so many dog friends and so many who love her in our neighborhood...Our hearts always ache for those special 4 legged children who crossed the rainbow bridge...Maybe your new pup will choose you ..or you them..you and your heart will know when your ready...take care💝🙏🕊
Thanks so much! My chow chow has the itchies. The pitbulls are fine but I trying this on all of them.
Welcome
That’s some epic stirring skills 😆
Yup!
Thanks so much for this!
Hello, ‘SP’ again…
Tx for this, much appreciated as always.
❓Re: The brown rice & grain free
I know the grain free thing is a bit controversial & likely overrated, but my girl definitely has a sensitivity to it.
Would Quinoa or Riced Cauliflower be good substitutes?
Or…?
Tx
PS I know its not under ur control, but wouldn’t it be nice if there was a UA-cam feature to search Comments as I’m sure u’ve been asked this already.
PPS As fyi, I’ve also tried the link for ur book… the link works, but the emails during the subsequent process never arrive. (I’ve tried several times & am vigilant about checking my Spam folder.)
Great video. Turkey seems like a great meat to try. I have a similar recipe but use Beef or Chicken or Wild Salmon for protein + one whole egg. I understand this video showcased a simpler diet to eliminate possible allergens. In my non-elimination homemade dog food, I will also add a pinch of pink Sea Salt (not much at all.) It helps him to better retain fluids and increase the palatability of the food. The only oil I will use is Olive Oil. The only alternates I might consider would be Krill Oil or Coconut oil- def. no other types of vegetible oils. For the veggies, I use Broccoli and Carrots- chopped very small. I prefer sweet potato over rice since almost all rice naturally contains some arsenic. Rice also converts to sugar too quickly (and is generally not good for teeth.) I also add 1/2 teaspoon finely ground egg shells per pound of food to ensure he is getting his very important calcium requirements. I cut way back on calcium if he is on anti-antibiotics as they block the absorption.
Where do you get your information from? My dog has been suffering from itching around his eyes discharges and itching on his forhead im sure its the food.
@@joza3077 You are wise to question. I acquired my information over years of researching, reading countless books and articles and watching more videos than I can count. I've tried and tested different approaches and have found what works and what does not. After a while, a pattern becomes clear. I have also studied nutrition on my own for several years and have very successfully used it to heal various issues. That said, I do not claim to be an expert and this is not advice. I have also consulted with many MD's and PhD's (including licensed nutritionists who like my approach.) Keep in mind that many doctors are not nutritionist. Often, at best, they take a class or two on it. For whatever reasons I don't pretend to know, they will be very quick to recommend preservative laden dry kibble (not Dr. Jones who I think is amazing.) In no way can kibble compete with what I feed my dog- not by a long shot. Moisture rich, primarily protein based, omega-3 fatty acid rich and human grade food makes for one happy and healthy dog. It's important to make sure it has the correct balance of vitamins and minerals. Calcium is important which is why I use baked egg shells crushed finely. If you do go this route, research it yourself to make sure your proportions are very accurate. You don't want for example too much calcium and too little protein. Once you have your formula down, it's really easy to make on a regular basis. I make enough to last him 2 weeks. Half does in the fridge and the other half in the freezer. When I run out, the night before, I put the frozen in the fridge. No harmful preservatives added! Organic is best. All fish must be WILD caught- this is very important. Also, when going moisture rich, do not neglect oral health. I brush my dogs teeth with a homemade- absolutely non-fluoride tooth paste.
In your case, you should consider seeking professional guidance e.g., a holistic vet. Your dog could have a serious skin condition. Also, if you use any citrus essential oils e.g., Lemon, they are photosensitive and when exposed to sun can create the issues you are describing. I use an essential oil formula that I make as a way to help control ticks. My go-to ticks spray.
This is late, but : enjoyed ur input. What size dog do u have? Do you COOK your food? I read that normal cooking would deplete the nutrients and either go raw or maybe low cooking/ What do you think? Also, what equipment to you use to grind the food smaller?? OK, sorr if this is late DG !
Thankyou! What can you tell us about ibs/ibd problems? Any home food sugestion?
Maria, see my comment above and maybe discuss with Doc or your vet. Hope it helps.
Consider adding in Slippery Elm
This really works if you follow his advice to commit. We call our golden the Itchy Yeasty Beasty...chronic hot spots, ear and skin infections, goopy eyes. Turns out it's a chicken allergy, and now he'll break out in hives he gets even a trace amount. Removing all chicken in any form (watch out for tocopherols) has him fit and fine. For flare up days from seasonal allergies, we give apoquel, and he was wearing a filtration mask even before it was hip.
Thanks again for sharing
Can I do spinach instead of kale and also can I add the canine supplement during this trail?
Thank you for this video and recipe. I am at my wits end with what the vet now says are likely food allergies. My 15 year old Westie littermate brothers have been on an excellent raw diet for several years and I don’t really understand why this happened. I have run out of options after trying everything until finally last month tried a vegan dog food. They hate it. I have never done a home-cooked regimen before but I am extremely hopeful this will do it, followed by some of your other recipes. I have a thought that perhaps their senior years now require this way of eating. Please, please do more videos with some recipes as I have only found 2 other recipe videos of yours. Thank you for all you do.
I used to feed cooked chicken, 30% raw grated vege (carrot, pumpkin...) swished in the chicken and cooked in coconut oil. they loved it. lived to 19 and 21 years, breakfast was rolled outs and a dash of soy milk
I would try his tumeric vid or buy the Dr Doug's tumeric bites. Calms the immune system down/anti inflammatory. Can give them 1/4 teaspoon coconut oil too.
Is an all plant diet really good for dogs, especially if they hate it? Are there any poultry/fish/meat options you could do an allergy test with?
Consider ruminate meats. Ruminants include cattle, sheep, goats, buffalo, deer, elk, giraffes and camels. These animals all have a digestive system that is uniquely different from our own. Ruminants are herbivorous grazing or browsing artiodactyls belonging to the suborder Ruminantia that are able to acquire nutrients from plant-based food by fermenting it in a specialized stomach prior to digestion, principally through microbial actions.
These are the meats, especially Beef, that are used in Human elimination diets to see what foods you react to as you add them back in. Perhaps one of these along with the other ingredients the Vet is recommending would help you figure out the best way to feed your fur babies.
Turkey has been our best boys protein (along with turkey livers). He now has an allergen (he started itching and has a hot spot on his tail) so we are going to use your recipe with pollack. Should we use the same weight of pollack as you use with the turkey? Do you believe in using Benadryl to reduce itching?
Doc, someone asked about IBS. In primitive and working breeds, we've identified something called EFS, enterococcus faecium sensitivity. EF is a super robust staph family bacterium added to food, supplements, treats, etc, as a probiotic. In some dogs, it mimics an absorption disorder, marked by voluminous milkshake consistency almost frothy diarrhea, alopecia, weight loss, and overall poor thrift. Ites essentially giving the dog a chronic GI bacterial infection, and can be difficult to Dx as treatments like metronitazole or pancreatic supplements will help in the short term, but the condition flares as soon as treatment stops, but it can be hard to put all the pieces together.
It seems few US vets are aware of this, but many overseas and UK vets are informed. Food manufacturers actually remove it from food sold outside the US. Are you familiar with this issue and can you offer any comment?
The treatment we use is to correct EFS is a round of metronitazole and alban while simultaneously removing all EF from the diet. If someone is really fond of a particular brand, they can inquire about purchasing stock meant for Europe that may not have EF. Once treated and understood, the dog thrives, then all one has to do is be diligent about checking labels, even on "safe" foods, as it could show up in a formulation at any time. Would you have other recommendations?
(Note: For primitives and working breeds like huskies, malamute, GSD, etc, we tend to just avoid it altogether as it's so often a problem. Why some dogs are affected and others not isn't completely clear, but in general, EF is too robust for an already efficient and more primal gut and GI flora.)
Thanks for sharing
@@VeterinarySecrets Hi Doc it's me again! Lol after we do this and let's say it goes away then afterwards what dog food brand and dog treats do you recommend? Thank you!
Hi Dr. Jones, do you have any videos on cats and allergies?
Dear Mr.Jones..thank you for all your videos🙏🏻 can turkey be raw? also can we mix some vegetables instead of rice? also how much grams for senior dogs? my Cookie is 16 year old (golden retriever) i am feeding her with turkey and vegetables for almost a year but i give raw meat boiled vegetables...i am not sure about the amount now after i watched this video..thank you for your time🙏🏻🍀
Yes it can be raw. Yes you can increase amount of veggies/less or no rice. Generally its 1lb of meat/50lbs of body weight daily
I hope you see this, I could really use some help with our dog. We got his food allergy panel back from the vet, and he's allergic to everything but potatoes, wheat, and soy bean. What can we feed him? Any suggestions would be very helpful. Thank you!
Thanks! It’s cool. What about for young cats and senior cats?
I'll do a follow up cat recipe
@@VeterinarySecrets Yesssssss.
Do you have to gradually switch their food like you would if you were changing other dog foods?
Hi Doctor, thank you for your video. I am new here and my 14 y/o fur baby is in the hospital. She was admitted because of her failing kidney and diabetes. My baby was diagnose in 2022. She got tested for allergy and is allergic to pork, turkey sweet potato, milk, pumpkin, and duck. She was given steroids but develop Cushing and is on Trilostane. I will try your recipe substitute turkey with chicken or beef. Right now she is not yet eating in the hospital. The Dr. Said she is still can have nausea due to her failing kidneys and her gastritis. The creatinine is going down from 8 to 5 in 24 hours which i consider there is still hope. I pray that she will be able to eat and get better so we can be with her from God’s grace in the remaining days, weeks, months and years. My baby is a very good gentle loving dog and never fussy. We rescued her when she was 1 year old about to be put to sleep. I will try this recipe for her when she gets home. Is there
My dog was on metronidazole and the vet also found that he had coccidia. He was doing better until yesterday I noticed his stool was yellow and had mucus. Could this be a sign of food allergies? he was on the chicken and rice diet due to his gut issues. Can I feed him this turkey recipe? Also, is it ok to add bone broth to his food? Thank you for your videos ! :)
Im so glad I watched hour video. My 2 yr old chihuahua and 10 yr old poodle both have food allergies. I'm certainly try the turkey, kale brown rice and sunflower oil recipe. My poor dogs are miserable from the itchies and paw licking! Benadryl and Zertec doesn't phase their allergies.
Glad it was helpful!
What would you recommend for 13 week Golden. Our vet put him on Purina Pro HA for 8 weeks to see if itchiness goes away. I feel like this is going to develop a food allergy. I have given him turkey lamb chicken fish and beef so far. Including some raw. I don’t know what to do.
Hi, thanks for the video, one question, if you have more than 1 dog, only 1 dog has issues and eats different than the dog doing this diet, should you not allow them to share water dishes? Thanks
Hi, is it okay to substitute brown rice with white rice?
Thank you for the video im going to try this on my one year old Shih tzu she is constantly licking her paws. Can you use extra virgin olive instead please?
Doc, have you tried draining the rice? Boil in a big pot and drain. Unless the starch is good for dogs. My mom always cooked us white rice, it was unheard of not to drain it. Rinse it before, then boil in plenty of clean water, then drain.
In Asia they rinse the rice until water is clear, then cook.
I do not know about that sunflower flower,otherwise super,thanks alot
Is olive better choice?
2 thoughts often dogs with GI signs are low in B12 and other vit/min so might be good to add . My dog only improved when I started to supplement that . I read in some sources you should start to see improvement in 2-3 weeks ? In case of my dog I’ve seen no improvement in itching in food trials so I’m thinking it might have another cause
Hey doc. Do you give video consultation, if yes pls let me know I am not getting any good vet suggestions for my baby's allergy. I really need someone to give me a genuine advice and we trust u 🙏
Dr Jones. I really want to try this recipe but the internet says kale is not good for dogs. I trust you but I found so much info stating that kale can cause health issues including kidney and bladder stones. Is it safe to try?
Question- How to start kibble food after 8 weeks? Is this something we do after each kibble if allergies begin on kibble? 🐶
Is this good for all kinds of dogs ?
Hi Dr. Jones. I’ve come to your videos many times and today it was as a result of looking up info on food intolerances. My miniature poodle, Toula (almost name twins), has a sensitive stomach. She was on zignature’s kangaroo formula after lots of research as a result of diarrhea every couple of weeks. Once she got on the zignature we didn’t have the issue again.
Then a year ago she had to have surgery for bladder stones. The vet put her on royal canin hydrolyzed protein. They insisted that she must continue on this diet because she now will have a tendency to develop the stones again. It seemed that most people I spoke with said the same thing.
Well, now I think we might be dealing with the same issue. I thought at first she got into something outside. Did bland diet of white rice and boneless skinless chicken breast. Went back to the royal canin, she was fine for a couple days, then diarrhea again. So again rice, chicken and then some canned pumpkin. Went longer before adding kibble again. Stools firmed up and she was fine a few days then back to diarrhea. At this point I really don’t want to give her the royal canin again. I would have zero problem cooking her food but I am worried about the vet’s warning about bladder stones. Please help 🤍
Hi, my dog has just had surgery for bladder stones. Did you end up having to keep your dog on Royal canin? My dog will find it tough to stick to one type of dog food?
@@robertclarke189 Hi there. She hasn't been on it since the time I posted that comment/question. It took a lot of patience and research but she has been great since thank God. Take a look into Earth Animal's urinary and kidney relief drops.
When switching from kibble is diarrhea normal? After 8 weeks we see improvement Then what do we do regarding diet do we make homemade food do we keep them on the turkey thank you
My dog eats and loves her ground Turkey, Brown Rice and vegetables. I give her kale and mix vegetables.
Ground beef gives my dog loose bowels.
Chicken doesn't bother my dog either.
She loves her food. I also give her a multivitamin.
Thanks for sharing
Do you think it would be ok to use rabbit as I am rather stuck for a novel protein to use with my dog. He has had rabbit in the past but very little and was about 7 years ago. Presumable he wouldn’t have developed an allergy to it. I can get raw ground rabbit ok. The only other food I can use is dry raw, but I am a bit concerned about it as it is 70% goat and 30% parsnip and also has seaweed lime and seaweed in it which basically has carrageenan init……also it’s dry which I am not keen on, and the parsnips are high glycemic index which I would not normally give him. So I thought maybe the rabbit was a better choice then I can add some green veg. I don5 give mine carbs. Thanks.
QUESTION: is it really alright to be giving 4 cups of rise to 1 cup of meat ratio? It seems that it would be mainly rise in this recipe vs your other suggestive ratios. Currently I’m using a ratio that you suggested in one of your videos of 50% meat protein, 25% veggies and 25% carbs. I am, however, planning to do an elimination diet due to bad skin reaction, so would love to know what would be the safest recipe for my pup. Thank you.
He said it was 2 cups of meat/kale together after cooking, but that's still 2/3 carbs by mass. However, since ground turkey has both fat and protein, if you do the math it comes down to about 40% calories from carbs.
Instead of sunflower oil can I use coconut oil ?
Could I freeze this? For how long?
What are good treats for allergies that I can make and add tuneric
* Tumeric
What do u do if they continue with symptoms - change the protein after 8 weeks?
Thank you Dr. Jones! We found out our dachshund was allergic to beef and now we only feed chicken, turkey and venison. This is a great video!
Thanks Veronica
If you could plzzz get back to me 🙏🏽 I have a 4 month old dachshund. What signs did you noticed in your dog that made you questions if he was allergic ? My boy itches a lot and just today I noticed that he is losing a bit of hair on his back. I feed him chicken and rice kibble.
@@Anonymous-um3im our vet did an allergy test (it was an integrative vet). I would recommend asking for a test but I don't know if a conventional vet will be as receptive to doing one. Our dachshund has environmental allergies where she will itch and lick her paws a lot too and the vet wanted to rule out if there is any food allergies as well. They believe the food allergies are linked to leaky gut. We make homemade broth for her now which is supposed to help leaky gut.
@@VeronicaMarce thank you 🙏🏽
@@Anonymous-um3im give him fish oil , probiotics
Dr Jones, do you know why your video released Wed Apr 28 is marked "Not Available" by UA-cam? Thank you.
Edit: It's the one about the Heimlich maneuver for dogs.
Since they were puppies i've fed my 2 male shih tzus Darwins raw organic chicken and have mixed in the stella and chewy raw frozen chicken here and there because its easier to travel with. My dogs both just turned 4 and one has started making belching sounds after eating and developed a yeast infection in one ear and on legs and paws. I thought I was doing so good by them not feeding them dry kibble. I'm going to try this recipe for 2 months to determine if he's become allergic to chicken. My question is, should I be providing him a vitamin supplement during this time since home cooked doesn't include the added vitamins and minerals? Thanks as always for your contributions to our pets, your information is absolutely invaluable!!
Curious about the protein/carb ratio and the processed oil...pls clarify species appropriate protien/carb/fat ratios...
Generally I like the 1/3 protein, 1/3 carb, 1/3 veggie mix. This is different as it's being used as a food allergy test and not meant for long term.
@@VeterinarySecrets ahh, specific and limited duration.
What is species appropriate ratios for healthy Dogs? 70%Protein/20%Carb/10%Fats?
Hello! I’ve been feeding my pittie lab chicken mixed with a bit of turkey and all of a sudden he started scratching an insane amount, till the point where he has hot spots. Is beef ok? I’ve fed him beef and rice. Is it alright if I mix in salmon oil with his new food regimen ? Thank yiu
Yes sounds like a chicken or turkey allergy, Yes salmon oil OK
My dog is allergic to rice, barley, oat, lamb, chicken, egg, Benadryl etc…any suggestions on wat i should use in replacement of the rice? Thanks!
Interesting. The blood allergy test I had run was actually spot on.
Turkey is one.
The environmental allergies were amazing.
Your dog is allergic to turkey?
@@joza3077 yep!
@@KlassiKritters What was the name of the allergy test? I am looking for one
@@shinealday8071 pm me
Where did you buy the test or what kind of test is, please tell me.
What about dogs that are allergic to grains and cant tolerate a lot of startches? My dog has tons of food allergies. I'm currently feeding ground goat and now she's starting to have allergies to that too.
Can these same ingredients be used to make treats? Like, for between meals.
Can you add broccoli also ? Thank You!
Yes
My girl just turned 10 and I have been feeding her Farmers Dog for a little over a year. She has developed what seems to be acid reflux. About once a month, she will have these nausea episodes with hacking. It will last for 12 hours. No vomiting or diarrhea and she still has an appetite. The vet gave me a prescription for cerenia to help with he nausea but I want to find the real issue. The 3 main proteins in her food are either turkey, pork, or beef. Could these foods be too rich for her tummy to handle? I would like to try this recipe to help with her GI issues, but also wonder if I need to add a supplement for the vitamins and minerals she needs? I am so confused on what to do.
Dr Jones, my schnauzer is allergic to chicken, duck and turkey. What can I use as protein source instead? I can't afford venison or other exotic animals like kangaroo meat. I was also advised that brown rice is not good for dogs if given daily as carbs turn to glucose and fats. Yeap, Alex put on weight when he was on diet of daily rice with minced beef or pork or fish and vegetables cos he spits vegs out or nosed it out of the bowl.
Consider Lamb, I like brown rice as an option. You can increase the protein and decrease the amount of rice.
Is chopped brocoli ok instead of kale?
I have three pugs that have food allergy . Yes one of my dogs is extreme itching reoccurring yeast infections etc., I see he has an even worse condition when I give him cheese.
I’m going to try your diet here for a couple of months maybe maybe can or freeze it.
So what I’d like to know is one of my dogs does not like oatmeal or rice brown or white. What can I substitute for the rice?????
What about tapioca flour?
My dogs been on Nutro dog food without corn call neutral essentials. I’ve given them castor and Pollux, other green freeze we’ve tried everything except for Bill jac.
A red and white potatoes safe for dogs when cooked? Is sweet potato really any good for dogs?
DL TH, cheese? either dairy allergy or High Histamine Food issue. Maybe DAO supp? Sub quinoa for the rice.
Thank you! One of my five Aussies has terrible skin allergies and yeast. Always worse this time of year. He has allergies to flea bites , though nothing fights fleas 100%. My vet said that just one bite can set it off. The yeast starts in his ears and the itching and biting gets so bad that he pulls out the fur around his rear. I'm using 50/50 vinegar and water. CBD oil and sound frequencies, both he enjoys and asks for. Pea powder is his food allergy, that's common in commercial kibble.

Have you tried probiotic? It works for people who have yeast problems.
@@2Ryled thank you for your response. No, we havent. Since my original comment, we found that adding aloe or coconut oil topically, he got some relief. Last week, he started on benedryl, with great success.
@@simhifree2416 Glad yor dog got relief.
@@simhifree2416 there are doggy probiotics. Our immune system is in our stomachs. Yor dog's immune system is haywire. Something to consider besides food, is cleaning supplies. What is used to clean floors? The dog lays on the floor, and is breathing whatever product is used. We are further away from it. What detergent is used on the dog's bedding and where he sleeps? What about treats, dog or human? May or may not effect a dog. But something to consider. More so with a dog with sensitivity issues. Good luck. Glad yor dog got relief.
Would this be safe for a 5 month old puppy? Im totally at a loss, she gets itchier and more musty smelling as she gets older.
What do I do after this ? In order to go to a same protein based , what is the next step
ok the elimination diet seemed to work.... my dog is no longer itching.... but now how do i reintroduce other foods ... how long would it take to see symptoms / to know exactly what was causing the itching reaction. oh, what is your opinion of sulfur soap... out of desperation i bathed my pekingese Harry with it... the 10 percent bar version of sulfur soap.... and it seemed to help.
Another peke owner! What diet do you feed? Mine very allergic to everything and the home diet made her lose too much weight.
@@artboxfashion4042 ditto. my peke is now very skinny and started itching again.... my 94 .yr old mom will not cooperate and sneaks him eggs / cheese etc. i'm feeding him ground turkey , non s tarch veggies, pumpkin, oatmeal and coconut oil. rice seems to be a problem. red eyes as well.
So, then, is this a constant recipe to feed my dog forever? Or is this just to right the dog's metabolism; and then, what to feed after that? Maybe I'm not getting it.... Do we make this with different meats? The dog I have now since Aug came with a terrible fungal infection and mite ear infection... and now, I'm still dealing with this rashiness and itchiness... just as I seem to get it under control; it pops up again... and it's not fleas, or grain, but I think it must be yeast oriented; or the meat is too acidic, such as red meat. I am now giving him a probiotic, and his ears are clearing up... but, he chews himself around his loins and he now has hot spots.... and inflammation.... so, I am thinking that perhaps the red meat is too rich... I am definitely going to try this recipe....However, if he does well with this, is this something I can feed him from now on? Usually, I give him just meat and then a couple of times a week I'll give him some fresh veggies ( only carrots, broccoli, and he loves fresh squash out of the garden) and brown rice as a side dish.... I just hope he eats it, as he doesn't really care to eat veggies or rice everyday... once or twice a week is o.k..... Wow, never had this problem with any of my dogs before... but, they are so worth it....
My dog can't tolerate any free range birds including turkey . Only bird she can eat is standard chicken. Great video. Thank you .
How did you find out your dog doesnt tolerate it?
Isn't Rrown Rice fattening since it turns to sugar????? Please answer this for me.
I’m not sure if my pup has mites or allergies, but I’m going to try this ! She has really bad itching on her face and ears she’s not bleeding 😩 and also hair loss around her eyes and top of ears , red ears and red bumps in between her paws with lots of licking
May also be mange mites- consider the topical Revolution as well
@@VeterinarySecrets is it ok to put the topical around her eyes ? That’s where the hair loss is and top of her ears and legs she has a little hair loss
I watch a lot of your videos on about allergies. I’m trying to figure out Miska what is wrong with her her body is all red. But you always say that a dog is constantly licking their paws or scratching, but I don’t really see any of this in her scratching, and looking.. I saw saw her on her chest. I didn’t know what to do so I rub coconut oil on it. It seem to close up the store and then I took her to the vet. He noticed she was red under the arms and all of her belly, but he didn’t say what it was and he didn’t say anything really about it. And then a couple of days later I had to take her back because your ears were all red and she end up with a yeast ear infection. He gave medication and ear drops, but the redness upper body is still there. But I don’t see any signs of her really scratching and itching and licking the way that you say a dog would if they had food allergies. I am trying other things that you have mentioned, and I see some difference in her. But I just don’t know what to think about this redness in her body.????
Is it weird that that food looked so good lol.
I have thought about doing a food allergy test for my dog but the vet clinic I had my dog with wanted 2 thousand to do the test I have since changed clinics for other reasons.
I did do my own food trial the main protein he had was chicken I found I was taking my dog for ear infections every 3 weeks or so he got switched to a fish based kibble protein he seemed to gotten better but recently I noticed hes getting ear trouble again is it possible potatos can trigger a allergic reaction or could it actually be salmon those are the 2 big ingredients in his food. I thought about trying a different grain free brand of food that was still fish based but potato free but it's so hard to find a grain free dog food without potatos
Hi- unfortunately many things can trigger the allergy. It can be the potatoes, etc.. ( although less likely) .. yes try and get sweet pototoe
@@VeterinarySecrets oh if potatos could be a problem wouldn't sweet potatos be as well? My dog is currently on Nutrience grain free ocean blend kibble.
Hi doc they said KALE is bad for dogs. Can you explain please
I tried to check by researching "Is kale good for dogs" and it gave me articles explaining how it is. Then I tried "Is kale bad for dogs" and got articles saying that it's bad.
So, who knows 🙄🤦♀️ But Dr. Jones' advice seems to be helpful so far 🤞😺🤞
If they're still reactive when eating this recipe, I'd drop the kale and see if that helps🤷♀️
Any other veggies to suggest?
Spinach/Carrots
Can dogs eat fish as a source of protein as opposed to only a turkey diet for 2 months?
How about using poached potatoes then stir fry it with mixed vegetables, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower as opposed to brown rice and kale?
I’m interested in trying this to see how my dog reacts to recommended doctors diet.
Thanks Doc 😃👍🏼
Hi- yes you can use what you described, but think simple, max 3 ingredients.
@@VeterinarySecrets
I’ll give it a try, thanks doc.
My question is to pluck or not to pluck? In Florida we are having epic high pollen Our dog Birdie a Shih Tzu poodle mix is doing head shaking the vet said she has no ear infection. Its the pollen. My question is to pluck or not to pluck ear hair? Many owners in my area say it helps.
If ear scratching, then pluck
@@VeterinarySecrets thank so much I was getting more confused than chameleon🦎 in a bag of skittles 💝
How do you know if the itching etc is due to a food trail or just environmental allergies? If the dog has environmental allergies (possibly) they may be itching anyway.
Please let me know what I can do for my highly allergic dog besides Apoquel and allergy shots.
I cook vegetables and ground turkey as you showed in a separate video. What herbals can I use besides these over priced drugs? She has the ear infections, lumps on her skin, paw licking, coughing, hacking, drooling without the Apoquel.
It might not just be food allergies, she might have environmental allergies also, and these CAN be accurately tested for using either a blood serum allergy test or intradermal allergy testing. If you are already doing a food trial you should either talk with your regular vet about environmental allergy testing or see if there is a veterinary dermatologist in your area who can do skin testing.
Unfortunately, there is no cure for allergies, but if you can figure out what the allergies are there are steps you can take to mitigate her allergic reactions, including allergy vaccines.
Do u use a lot of cleaning products on floors, or wash her bed in laundry detergent? Why not try his tumeric video for inflammation& immunity. They sell tumeric chews too. Or a dog probiotic? That's treating the gut. I'm not a vet but it can't hurt.
I have a question. Can I continue to use the Krill supplement & Plant steroids while performing this allergy test
Dr. Jones, my dog will not eat any extra ingredients in his meatballs of beef and pork. I tried turkey, a while back, and he would not eat.I will try again. Itching is on the low scale, but I will try turkey again.
Is it common for the dogs stool to be smaller on homemade food?
Can ixdo this with a 17 week old puppy? She is a malshi. I have her on avoderm kibble. She loves it. She itches often around her ears, armpits here and there and scoots her butt often. Does not have any parasites or worms just had fecal exam. She is a 2nd generation malshi. Maltese and shihtzu . I only see chicken in all puppy food, I can not find any other meat flavor. Help please
Coconut oil instead of sunflower oil?
I have a lab that weighs 100 Lbs. You said 1 cup per 20 Lbs. so your saying 5 cups each feeding? A total of 10 cups of food each day? That seems like an awful lot of food. Like way more than I would eat even and I weigh 250 Lbs. Am I crazy to be thinking this or would it be more like 2-3 cups per feeding for a 100 Lb. Lab.
