Dry dog food and carrots can both cause skin conditions as you describe
so
obviously she isn't doing well on it. Dry dog foods contain grains
which
cause skin allergies and carrots contain sugar which can do the same
thing. Both are carbohydrates and not needed in a dog's diet. Raw is by
far the best solution and will totally eliminate the problem.


Really? On our last visit to the vet, she (the vet) said to keep feeding
Mitzi the dried food as she was doing so well on it (Mitzi's fur was
growing
back faster than anyone expected)! I'm confused now... do I follow the
vet's advice and keep feeding Mitzi the dry or swap to wet food and hope
she
likes it and that it is doing more for her than the dry?

Char can be confusing. She has a few refrains that she tries to fit into
everone's world, and doesn't recognize when it is in discord with how
the real world works. "Grains are bad" is not her only refrain, but it
is her most common one, and repeatedly bringing it up can just distract
from the real issues, if any.


Ah right! OK, thank you Bill!
