Hello! How can I help you today?

I'm thinking of getting a new dog, but I'm worried about food allergies. What are common food allergies in dogs?
user
Common food allergies in dogs include beef, dairy, and wheat. Some dogs can also be allergic to soy, eggs, or lamb.
assistant
That's helpful to know. What ingredients should I look for in dog food to avoid those allergies?
user
Look for dog food with novel protein sources like venison, salmon, or duck, and unique carbohydrates like sweet potatoes or green peas. Also, choose a food that's labeled as hypoallergenic or limited ingredient.
assistant
I see. So, I should also consult with my vet before making any decisions about my dog's diet?
user
Yes, that's a great idea. Your vet can help determine the best diet for your dog based on their individual needs, breed, and health status.
