Apparently I’m allergic to grain :-(

Mama and Papa suspected that for a while, because every time I got rice or some very yummy treats that contained grain, I started scratching a lot. Sometimes it was so bad, that I left little balls of coat all over the place, because I was scratching so much.

We tried everything to sooth my skin, but since Mama set me on a strict no-grain diet, everything is fine. No scratching, no itching skin…just pure fluffiness.

Guess that means, I really am allergic to grain and that I have to say ‘no’ to lots and lots of yummy treats…and rice…and what not….

But Mama said, that it’s not as bad as I’m thinking right now, and that we’ll manage it just like Papa’s allergies. Apparently, he’s allergic to all kinds of things, like grass, cats (tee-hee guess I won’t ever have to share my family with a cat) and trees.

Now I’ll only grain free food and treats, and so far, I don’t feel like I’m missing out on something. And just to make me feel better, Mama took me on a trip to San Francisco the other day, where we visited the Golden Gate Park and enjoyed a beautiful view over the City.

I think I really like San Francisco. Nice off-leash beaches, lots of lovely dog parks and the Golden Gate Park is dog friendly too. Wohoo!

    Hi Pepper,

    The best part is that at least you know now why you were so itchy, so that’s really cool!! I have grain-free food, just in case, Mum gets it from Costco and it tastes really good!!

    You look like you had lots of fun in San Fran, I love it there too!!

    Have a fun weekend buddy,

    Your pal Snoopy :)

    Thanks Snoopy. I guess it’s a good thing to know why I were itchy, and the grain-free treats aren’t bad. My regular food always has been grain-free, so I don’t have to change that :-D. Happy Halloween, Pepper
