Until we made the switch to raw, Nellie licked her paws until they bled.  We tried all of the (sometimes harmful) treatments, like Apoquel  and Cytopoint, but nothing worked.  Two weeks on raw and the paw licking has completely stopped for 6-years now. PS:  Chicken is a huge allergy culprit!

Texas Tripe is hands-down the most cost-effective and convenient frozen raw food.  It has the meat, organs, and bones all ground up in a sausage-like tube.  The catch:  They are not sold retail.  Their truck delivers to Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana and you pick it up from the truck delivery point.
