And they almost all use them. I was advised by some friends to try feeding raw food, and that worked like a charm. I add all-natural vitamins that are recommended for raw diets, and when you read the ingredients on the label. You know what they are putting in the vit mix. I give eggs twice a week. And add apples, carrots, greens, and any fresh vegetables I have in the fridge to give them some variety. My dogs love it, and I know what is in my dogs\u2019 food. You could use the same mix and just cook the meat if you are worried about feeding raw, but my do great on the raw. And I buy their meat from the grocery store, so they are getting human-grade food.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Author: <\/strong>Patty B.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Likes: <\/strong>1<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>I cook lamb and rice with green vegetables.

Then I hear NOT to feed grain-free foods, and hear some brands like Purina and others are highly encouraged by veterinarians\u2026Seriously, I wouldn\u2019t touch Purina. Interesting to me was that the ones most touted by vets are the ones they happen to sell in their offices and most likely get kick-backs for. So I just stopped searching and made my dog\u2019s food with a variety of ingredients from the grocery store.

What are common food allergies in Australian Shepherds?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"84\" data-end=\"392\" class=\"ai-optimize-84\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Australian Shepherds often develop allergies to common proteins like beef, chicken, or dairy, as well as grains like wheat, corn, and soy. Identifying the allergen typically requires an elimination diet and working closely with a veterinarian.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"397\" data-end=\"697\" class=\"ai-optimize-86\"><strong data-start=\"397\" data-end=\"476\">2. What ingredients should I avoid in my Aussie\u2019s food if they have allergies?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"397\" data-end=\"697\" class=\"ai-optimize-86\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Avoid ingredients such as artificial preservatives, colorings, and common allergens like wheat, soy, corn, and certain animal proteins. Reading ingredient labels carefully is crucial for avoiding potential triggers.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"702\" data-end=\"1015\" class=\"ai-optimize-88\"><strong data-start=\"702\" data-end=\"785\">3. What are the best protein sources for Australian Shepherds with food allergies?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"702\" data-end=\"1015\" class=\"ai-optimize-88\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Novel proteins such as duck, venison, rabbit, or fish (like salmon) are often recommended for dogs with allergies. These proteins are less likely to have been encountered by your dog, reducing the risk of allergic reactions.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1020\" data-end=\"1332\" class=\"ai-optimize-90\"><strong data-start=\"1020\" data-end=\"1090\">4. Are grain-free diets good for Australian Shepherds with allergies?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1020\" data-end=\"1332\" class=\"ai-optimize-90\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Grain-free diets can be beneficial if your dog is specifically allergic to grains. However, not all dogs with allergies require grain-free food. It\u2019s best to confirm the allergy type with your vet before switching to grain-free options.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1337\" data-end=\"1645\" class=\"ai-optimize-92\"><strong data-start=\"1337\" data-end=\"1408\">5. Can homemade dog food help with my Australian Shepherd\u2019s allergies?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1337\" data-end=\"1645\" class=\"ai-optimize-92\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Yes, homemade dog food allows full control over ingredients and can be helpful in managing allergies. Always consult with a veterinarian or pet nutritionist to ensure the meals are balanced and meet your Aussie\u2019s nutritional needs.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1650\" data-end=\"1967\" class=\"ai-optimize-94\"><strong data-start=\"1650\" data-end=\"1731\">6. Is hypoallergenic dog food effective for Australian Shepherds with allergies?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1650\" data-end=\"1967\" class=\"ai-optimize-94\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Hypoallergenic dog foods are often formulated with limited ingredients or hydrolyzed proteins, making them effective for managing food sensitivities. These diets can reduce exposure to common allergens and help alleviate symptoms.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1972\" data-end=\"2272\" class=\"ai-optimize-96\"><strong data-start=\"1972\" data-end=\"2038\">7. What signs indicate my Australian Shepherd has a food allergy?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1972\" data-end=\"2272\" data-is-last-node=\"\" class=\"ai-optimize-96\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Symptoms include itchy skin, frequent ear infections, excessive licking, gastrointestinal issues (vomiting or diarrhea), and hot spots. If you notice these signs, consult your vet for allergy testing and dietary recommendations.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/iheartdogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/portrait-australian-shepherd-field-park-1-350x233.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4608466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iheartdogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/portrait-australian-shepherd-field-park-1-350x233.jpg 350w, https:\/\/iheartdogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/portrait-australian-shepherd-field-park-1-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/iheartdogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/portrait-australian-shepherd-field-park-1-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/iheartdogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/portrait-australian-shepherd-field-park-1-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/iheartdogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/portrait-australian-shepherd-field-park-1-60x40.jpg 60w, https:\/\/iheartdogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/portrait-australian-shepherd-field-park-1-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/iheartdogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/portrait-australian-shepherd-field-park-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"173\" data-end=\"233\">Support Your Dog\u2019s Allergy Relief With Better Nutrition<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"235\" data-end=\"727\">Choosing the right food can make a world of difference for dogs with allergies.
