Canine Food Allergies: Update of Pathogenesis, Diagnoses, and Management (2006): sciencedirect.com/… The exact prevalence of Food Allergy in dogs and cats remains unknown. There is no breed, sex or age predilection, although some breeds are commonly affected. Pruritus is the main complaint and is mostly corticoid-resistant. In 20–30% of the cases, dogs and cats have concurrent allergic diseases (atopy/flea-allergic dermatitis).

Working Dog: keep your dog energised and active throughout its working day, with tailored dishes designed for pets that will be racing around on their feet all day! The breeds listed above are just a small number of the dogs who are more commonly affected by food sensitivity. The primary aim of hydrolyzing proteins for specialized diets is to sufficiently disrupt the protein structure within the diet to remove any existing allergens and allergenic epitopes and thereby prevent immune recognition by patients already sensitized to the intact protein.Your dog’s digestive system is essential in the processing and absorption of all the nutrients in their food. The digestive system and skin of many dogs are frequently affected by allergies and food intolerances. One of the best ways to avoid digestive upset and support excellent physical and mental health is to make good dietary choices for your dog.

Burns is a British company that produces simple, high quality diets developed by Veterinary Surgeon John Burns. All Burns diets are hypo-allergenic, naturally preserved and free from artificial flavourings, colourings and preservatives. Burns Pet Nutrition takes an ethical approach to pet food manufacture and has never conducted experiments on animals. If symptoms of food allergies persist after the introduction of this type of diet, it can also be helpful for determining the new allergen that is causing the adverse reaction due to the limited number of ingredients. Carb-rich ingredients: includes all ingredients derived from grains, pseudo-grains, potatoes and other starchy root vegetables, sweet potato and legumes (except whole peas which are categorised under fruit and veg) except for isolated protein and extracted oils. Also includes fibre supplements. Gentle digestion is promoted through an optimal balance of highly digestible protein and fat, as well as through a unique blend of fibre sources for intestinal health.Vitamin A is involved in cell growth and division, as well as hair growth and skin maintenance. Since some of the key symptoms of food allergies include damage to the skin, it is important to include Vitamin A in hypoallergenic diets to help clear up the damage done by any previous allergic reactions a dog may have had. Ingredients in dog food that function as a source of vitamin A are fish oils such as cod oil. Vitamin E

The Burns puppy diets are suitable for both puppies and juniors. Please see our feeding guide as we recommend different daily amounts for puppies (up to 6 months old) and juniors (from 6 months to adult). Essential n-3 fatty acids in dog food help to treat the inflammation associated with allergic reactions. These essential fatty acids help to manage inflammatory responses by changing the levels of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory eicosanoids produced during a reaction.

All of the Burns diets are formulated without common ingredients that are known to cause food intolerances such as wheat, soya, dairy, artificial colours and artificial preservatives, this means that all of our diets are suitable for sensitive dogs. This is an attempt to improve digestion and reduce the likelihood of a reaction ensuing in dogs with sensitivities to common ingredients found in most commercial dog foods.
