Changed ollies food

Im so happy I didnt get solid gold like I was going to since I just saw the post about it. We got wellness small breed formula. Ollies been itching like crazy for a few weeks now, no sign of flea and her ears were a little red inside as well. I called her vet he said it could be her food or her bath stuff. So fingers crossed with the food change it will all clear up. Other than Wellness what would you suggest? The only "close" store to me are petco and petsmart.

You can mail order good food. I "believe" in grain-free. As I keep saying, every time Penny gets wheat, she gets yeast in her ears and the mad itchies.

My only grip with the food is the kibble is small and ollies old food was kind of big so shes haveing a hard time eating it. I fed her a little last night and she seems to like it for the most part. We will see the lady said I have 30 days to return it and she should show signs that it working it about a week.

This part I would disagree with. With a food change, I think it takes at least 4-6 weeks to see a significant change, if there's going to be one. You have to give the body time to "detox" from the old food. Are you sure that the itching isn't seasonal allergies? It's pretty common in pugs. Duke started itching horribly around a month ago. We tried different antihistamines, medicated baths (he's already on grain free food), and finally had to get some steroids from the vet to get him some relief. Nothing else was working. We went thru this last fall with him too.

Sorry, wrong place!
