Instead of giving your dog a bath with soap try soaking your dog in an Epson Salt bath two to three times the first week then once a week for a month then you can go to once every other week. 2 cups in a bath of luke warm water filled to the top... if possible get your dog to sit or lie down.....I had a bitch do the same thing... thought it was the food but I found out through trail and error it wasn't.... RC has soy... it is proven fact that dogs who have food allergies will be allergic to one of the following wheat, corn or soy..... with that said however some never react to anything and then some do but why take the chance....

Foods that are good in my opinion

Nature's Logic
Natural Balance
Nature's Recipe Venison formula only
Nature's Variety
just to name a few!

I wouldn't want rice as a first ingredient and then rice is listed again as 3rd ingredient, I always want meat/protein listed first. Be very careful with citric acid...do not get the food wet as getting this food wet with citric acid listed can cause bloat.

Brown rice, chicken meal, rice, chicken fat (preserved with mixed tocopherols, rosemary extract, and citric acid), soy isolate, chicken, natural chicken flavor, dried beet pulp, dried egg powder, salmon oil, powdered cellulose, soya oil, sodium chloride, calcium carbonate, chicory extract, potassium chloride, sodium tripolyphosphate, taurine*, potassium citrate, choline chloride, vitamins [dl-alpha tocopherol acetate (source of vitamin E), inositol, niacin, l-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate (source of vitamin C*), d-calcium pantothenate, biotin, pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6), riboflavin (vitamin B2), thiamine mononitrate (vitamin B1), vitamin A acetate, folic acid, vitamin B12 supplement, vitamin D3 supplement], marigold extract, trace minerals [zinc proteinate, zinc oxide, ferrous sulfate, manganese proteinate, copper proteinate, copper sulfate, manganous oxide, sodium selenite, calcium iodate], glucosamine hydrochloride, dl-methionine, green tea extract, chondroitin sulfate.

Reading these posts it apparently depends on the dog and their own digestive system. My only other question would be if a food is rated for a dog up to 55lbs is it ok to give it to an 83lb dog? (might be a silly questions but I can never be too carefull with my Bully)

I am very happy with it. I have had NO allergy issues with the food. I actually can say my dogs look better on the Bulldog food rather than when they were eating Natural Balance.

where Sophie was allergic to the grass! I changed foods several times and still had the same issues as when we fed RC. Now that we have moved to a different area of the country, Sophia's allergies have all but vanished. I am sorely tempted to try the RC again.

It should be fine for any adult dog.

If your dog's skin is just dry, and not reactive to food or exterior allergens, give the RC a try. I feed it, and my dog's coat is beautiful. But he has no allergies; an allergic dog may not tolerate it as well.

it is very greasy and are prone to cause allergy problem. When mine was on it, he would get bumps/hives, toes red and bad skins and yeast infection in the ears. Have you tried natural balance duck and potatoes or fish, it has less ingredients and allergen free.Mine are currently on Orijen chicken and are doing great, no flaky skins and no bumps. It is a bit pricey but considering the visits to the vets or medications for the allergy or skin infections, it's worth it for me and for the dogs.
