So few days ago I posted about his back being full of sores. You guys told me it's allergies and I should change his food a little. I have been reading about and I thought it was the beef as he was on chicken before and he was fine. I switched him to beef when I got him because this is what all of mine where eating.
Yesterday I was cleaning him and he had this nasty smell on him. His breath is getting worse and worse. Then I cleaned his paws and I saw it! All red and full of yeast!!! So my poor guy has an yeast infection. We are going to the vet tomorrow to get meds . I was up till 1am and was reading how to get rid of the yeast and baths with ACV etc. and I was trying to see what the heck causes it. And then it was like a light bulb!! I feed him beef and potatoes grain free food. It's not the beef , it's the potato!!!!!
So I now I have to find him new food. I am trying to read all of the posts on here and internet and I am lost , also is so hard because my laptop just broke and I only have my phone right now. So with this said I need suggestions.
Most of you say to go grain free. Is rice bad for them? I can not feed chicken as my boxer is allergic to it , so can I just do rice with turkey or other protein? To cut off the potato? But then rice is a carb as well which is not good for they yeast, am I correct? However he was on chicken and rice before and he was doing great ( according to the last owner) . She was feeding him eukanuba ( not a fan of it at all). Should I just put him on that till his skin gets better?
I can not afford Fromm , any other suggestions what else I could get him? I am so lost and I feel so bad that I didn't cut that sooner!!!
This is after I cleaned his paws with witch hazel
