Home-Made Allergy-friendly dog food
Ingredients
- 275g cups brown rice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1360g ground turkey
- 90g baby spinach, chopped
- 2 carrots, shredded
- 1 zucchini, shredded
- 75g peas, canned or frozen
Method
- In a large saucepan of 700ml water, cook your rice according to the package instructions and set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a large stockpot over medium heat.
- Next, add in the ground turkey and cook until browned, it should take about 3-5 minutes. Make sure to crumble the turkey as it cooks.
- Stir in the spinach, carrots, peas, zucchini and brown rice until the spinach has wilted and the mixture is heated through. Again, this should only take about 3-5 minutes.
- Then let it cool completely before splitting into portions for later.
- Bag up the dog food into even portions and date them. You're best off freezing for later and moving into the fridge the day before you want to use them (at which point you may want to microwave for 15-30 seconds).
Once you understand what your pet can and can't eat, it might be challenging to decide what to do next. You can make the sensitivity friendly snacks above, but how do they cope with their day-to-day?
Luckily, Purina offer a range of 'Pro Plan Veterinary Diets' for dog and cats (the UK's most common pets) which you can quickly switch their main food too, and feel better.
The Purina Feline Hypoallergenic is a complete hypoallergenic veterinary diet for the diagnosis and management of food allergies in cats whatever their age, even kittens. The food is a true hypoallergenic meal formulated with protein that's been broken down (hydrolysed) into tiny components that are too small to cause an allergic reaction and a purified carbohydrate source. It's is also useful for cats with severe bowel disease such as IBD as it is highly digestible.

It's also useful for dogs with severe bowel conditions such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease as it is particularly highly digestible.
