My dog has skin bumps and scabs. Is her new food causing allergies?

Question

My dog is 3 years old. I use to give her Caesars dog food but I was told this by getting McDonald's for your dog so I switched it to Blue Dog Food and recently my dog has like little bumps with scabs on it that gets kind of Skelly afterwhile on a stomach a couple on her back I put A&D Ointment on it but every time I get rid of one another one comes I'm wondering is it the food that I'm giving her even though it's a good quality maybe her body is rejecting it please help me. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | spayed | 2 years and 7 months old | 15 lbs

It does sound like from your description that Crayon (love her name!) may be allergic to something in the food causing her skin reaction. I'm wondering if you are talking about Blue Buffalo dog food. I personally do not like that food, it's not that good quality, and they have problems with quality control because they don't own the factories that make their food. I recommend trying Orijen or Acana. They are much better quality than Blue Buffalo, and they own their own factories to make their food so the quality control is much better.
