boxer with skin problems!!!!

i have a boxer who is about 3yrs old i rescued her oct 04 as she was staved and beaten she is now in top condition apart from skin problems which she has had since i have had her. the vet juts gives me loads of tablets and says something doesn't agree with her. i would like to change her diet from wagg complete to something else, has anyone got any good reconmendations (must be dry food) i have heard on vitalin lamb and rice whis is hypo allergenic but the problem is finding somewhere that sells it and it is quite expencive cheers

Hi maci-may and welcome,
I currently have a 2 1/2 year old boxer,
he never got on with dry kibble so converted over to raw feeding and he has never been better
If it's dry food you want there's a few hypo allergenic brands.

How does the skin problem present it's self?

Hi there and welcome I feed Burns Holistic which is a very good dry complete food and contains no additives or irritants only pure ingredients and is not tested on animals..link below,

If you contact Burns then they will send samples. I feed venison and brown rice and Kelties but there are other varieties. They will deliver or tell you the nearest stockist. Fish body oils (not liver oil) can help too...you can get it from the health food shop.

Autarky is very good and very reasonably priced.
I fed it before I fed raw and would def use again.

her skin is realy red and angry looking she chews her feet and scratches her chin until they bleed,

My Boxer scratches his ears and makes them bleed same with chin,
It's more that he can't scratch softly and just goes hell for leather.
He has always done this
He knows to stop when he hears the word 'enough'

if i tell her enough she stops gets up looks at me and goes in another room and starts again!!!!

We've not had problems but I'll agree with Mini on the Burns food. My staffie is black brindle and her coat shines like silk. Staffy's staffy ( ) Jaspar also looks good on it - find some pics of him and my Dinah in the Pictures section.
Burns have got a website you can ask for advice too - might be a good idea. Can't remember the address but if you google Burns dog food I'm sure you'll find it.

I would try Burns too. They have a message board that you can post on or just phone or email them.

Even the vet commented on the good condition of Star yesterday.
