Food allergies in dogs are becoming quite common these days especially in India for several reasons-which we talk about here. According to a study, food allergy became the 3rd most Common Allergy in the world in which India ranks the 2nd.
Food Allergy defined: If someone shouts in a restaurant that he/she is allergic to shellfish, everyone gets alert. If the allergic person comes in contact with shellfish, he could die of Anaphylaxis. The same thing may apply to animals.
A Food Allergy occurs when a dog’s immune system mistakenly identifies a particular food ingredient as harmful. And then creates defensive antibodies to fight the invading enemy (the food).
Along with this, it’s important to know about food intolerance?
A food intolerance is a digestive problem rather than an immune response. An intolerance occurs when a dog’s digestive system is unable to digest a specific ingredient.
As per my Knowledge and Experience More than 90% People Treat their Dogs/Cats when it reaches to extreme stage only and allergy is suppressed via medicines but not get completely cured, as a basic reason of allergy is not targeted.
Most Common Reasons for Food Allergies :
Some ingredients are more likely to cause food allergies:
1. Corn[v.common],Beef,Soya,wheat , chicken eggs, Dairy, yeast, cultured fish and also the contaminated food –most common in our country esp. in Poultry Products where either chicken fats remains on edges or stays uncooked or poultry is infected.
When new food was introduced and there is an allergic reaction, it doesn’t mean that the new dog food is the cause. Sometimes, pets may be allergic to pet food that they have been consuming for years.
