Question
Does the diet cause skin problems and biting on feet?  We are now giving the dog bagged dry dog food.  If that is not good for the dog, what "people" food should we give her? What vegetables would be good and should we feed just once a day? We also live in Singapore, so it is hot and humid every day.  Thank you so much for any help you can give.


Answer
Your dog could be allergic to the food.  It's possible.
If you looking into feeding a raw diet.  They are lot of books around and information on the internet.

Raw diet is also called BARF which stands for Bones and Raw food.  It's an excellent diet for doges.  Make sure you read up on the diet.
