Puppy has symptoms of dog allergies?

duncan-sillyfaceThe last few days have been absolutely miserable for our household.  Our nearly 5 month old rottie pup has diarrhea.  As often as I’ve begrudgingly cleaned up after his unpredictable bowels this week, I try to keep in mind how awful he must feel.

I’m also concerned.  Since his diarrhea may be a sign of dog allergies, I don’t want it to progress into a skin problem. We thought he may be allergic to his food.  We just recently switched him from his Purina puppy chow to an all-natural adult dog food.   Our vet doesn’t seem to think that it is his dog food though.  He recommended a boiled hamburger and rice diet over the next few days.
