What dog food brands are best for a puppy with food allergies?

Question

I believe my dog has a food allergy. What brand dog food would you recommend for a puppy that has food allergies?

Jennifer Summerfield, DVM CPDT-KA · Accepted Answer

The best type of food for a dog with food allergies would be a prescription hypoallergenic diet such as Purina HA or Hills z/d - these are diets that are specially formulated to avoid any proteins that can cause an allergic response, and can be ordered online with a prescription from your veterinarian. If you need an over-the-counter option, some dogs with food allergies do well on Natural Balance limited ingredient diets - these don't work as consistently as prescription diets do, but are often less expensive so can be a reasonable alternative option if needed due to cost.
