My Tucker is prone to ear infections and also developed a discharge from his eyes. It was the discharge that took the hair off where it dripped. After many visits to the vet and treating of the eyes, the vet recommended changing his food to one made from Kangaroo meat, to which Tucker would unlikely be allergic. He has been on it ever since and that has really helped keep the eye discharge at bay and no more loss of hair around the eyes.

Hannah and he got some treats for Christmas and I've given him some. I hope I haven't created a problem because with these food allergies you definitely have to limit what you give the dog to just their special diet. Normally Tucker gets a small amount of his dog food when Hannah gets a treat.
