Hello there! Would Nutrish Just 6 dog food work for a dog with wheat allergy? It claims to be wheat, soy and corn free, but it does contain rice. What are chances that my dog will have a reaction to rice if gluten causes vast variety of reactions?

Plain natural rice is gluten and wheat free, so your pet shouldn’t have a reaction if this is the only allergen she is sensitive to. However, just keep in mind that commercial overt the counter diets, that are not prescription, can have contamination and bits of other bag foods mixed in because they are all bagged on the same conveyor belts and have no restrictions on this. It’s best to always go with a prescription diet of possible to avoid this possible contamination issue. Best of luck with your pet Kantishna and her food allergies. Take care.
