So...
Buddy's been on an ED of pheasant and buckwheat in order to figure out if he has food allergies. It's been just over 3 months and there has been no change, whatsoever. 3 months is the length of time that people suggest in order to rid the system of whatever ails it.
I took Buddy to the vet to get his opinion and ask about his thoughts about a systemic yeast infection. He said they weren't common in our part of the US. I was slightly bummed because it seemed to answer so many of our questions and when filling out a symptoms checklist, Buddy had, at one point, or another 22 of the items listed. But I'm not going to argue with the vet.
I'm beginning to think that it's not a food allergy and just his environmental allergies getting out of control, despite our attempts to curb them- and the vet agrees. He said over three months on a special diet would have shown something by now.
Our canine guru, wants us to try one more different protein source and carb he's not has before. I would like some objective opinions, por favor!
