The Problem Child

2:25 PM Posted In , , Edit This 0 Comments »
Ugh, so Winston has yet ANOTHER ear infection.  He has had so many in the last 2 years that I lost count a long time ago.  I figured it was because he's the runt of the litter and he's just going to be a problem child forever.  I asked a lady at work what she thought because her hubby is a vet and she said he probably has a food allergy.  I would have never thought of that!  She said some dogs have food allergies and will get lots of ear infections, skin rashes, eye infections, etc.  Winston gets all of those things all the time.  She said it may be the corn, wheat, dairy, or something else but switching his food might do the trick.  Cheap dog food (which is what he eats) is high in those crappy ingredients.  So, I picked up some expensive dog food yesterday to see if that does the trick.  If it works then great!  It sucks that it's so expensive but it will probably be cheaper than more vet bills and medications!  Let's hope that does the trick!
