Poor Bosco! It could be the food causing the problem. It's interesting the rash start right around when you started him on the new food. I have colleagues who have reported seeing skin rashes in dogs who are eating Rachael Ray food. When their clients stopped feeding that food, the rash went away. It might be a good idea to try a different brand of food to see if that helps with the rash. Brands I recommend include Royal Canin, Hill's Science diet, Purina ProPlan, and Iams. Bosco should also see a vet for this rash, especially since stronger medications such as steroids may be needed to treat the rash. I would bring him into your vet first thing Monday.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Chewy. When evaluating diets, I look for foods that are certified by AAFCO. This a regulatory group that ensures the food is healthy and nutritionally balanced for your dog. Next, the dog needs to eat and seem to enjoy the food. He should not have vomiting or diarrhea on the diet or an excessive amount of bowel movements. These are indications that the diet does not agree with him. His hair coat should be glossy as well. I hope this information helps!

I personally would choose a food like Iams, science diet or royal canin over rachael ray simply because these companies have been around for a very long time and have done a lot of research to back their products. Some of these newer foods or "boutique" foods do not properly research their products and therefore, aren't as high quality as they claim. I would just tell your sisters this and see if they would be willing to switch. If you do decide to switch her to the new food, I would slow transition her from the old food to the new food over a 10-14 day period to prevent an upset stomach. I hope this helps!

Good on you for doing this! Trusty needs a puppy formulated food still, and brands I recommend include Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, and Iams. I personally feed my dogs Iams and they love it. Start the switch now, and do it slowly to avoid GI upset. Best of luck.

I'm sorry Bane has been so sick! It sounds like the Rachel Ray food you gave him may be the cause of this vomiting, as a sudden change in diet can cause these symptoms. The food itself could be causing the symptoms as well. Given that he is still vomiting and won't eat, it's best that Bane is seen by a vet right away. He may need anti-nausea medication to stop the vomiting, which the vet can give him. In addition, because both your dogs experienced vomiting from that food, I would not feed it to them any more. I personally never recommend feeding dogs grain free food unless they have allergies. Dogs do need grains, they are beneficial to their health. I recommend feeding Royal Canin, Hill's Science diet, Purina ProPlan, or Iams.
