call Darwin? I want to try a hypoallergenic dog food for my 18 month old chow. I am not sure IF he is allergic to foods and if so, I don't know what. So would a hypo dog food work? OR should I try to do an elimination diet? If I do that, how does it work? I've never had to do this before and this is my first dog -ever. My dog breaks out with sores on is body and they can get flaky. He's been to the vet and he cannot seem to find anything wrong other than a food allergy. What can I do?

Your vet should try to figure out what type of food allergy your dog is having. There are tests available, without that knowledge it is impossible to reccomend a type of food. Here is a link that may help http://dogs.lovetoknow.com/wiki/Hypoallergenic_Dog_Food
