Both my dogs are suddenly itching like crazy. Rocky has scratched several sores on himself and now has an ear infection. Chelsy can't scratch but she is walking in a comma and her eyes are all red and goopy. The only thing that has changed for both of them is that they are both eating a new 95% meat canned food that contains flaxseed oil and neither one has ever eaten that ingredient before. I actually didn't know it was in the food when I ordered the cans. (Rocky is also finishing his trial bag of TOTW but Chelsy doesn't get that so it wouldn't pertain to both dogs).
Do you think it could be the flaxseed oil in the food that is setting both dogs off? There's really nothing else different outside, inside or getting put in their mouths to cause all this that I can figure out. Has anyone else had trouble with flaxseed in food causing a reaction in their dogs?
The only other thing is that the TOTW food has quail in it that Rocky has never had, but Chelsy is not eating that and usually it would not be a meat protein like quail that would cause an allergy in Rocky after one exposure.
