Default Green Pea......Food w/o?

I am currently feeding Orijen 6 Fish and I mix it with some Acana or Evo or a few others of that quality. My puppy Gabriel every once and awhile gets a little bumpy and needs some diphenhydramine for 5-7 days to clear it up. I noticed it seemed to occur when we got new bags of food but not every time we did. So I allergy tested him and he is allergic to a few things that are not in what he eats but he is also allergic to green pea which is in a bunch of premium dog foods and he is a picky guy and if he only gets one type of food for a week or so he wont eat it so I have to mix. If any one has any food recommendation of varieties that dont have green pea in them it would be really really really appreciated.

Are you looking for allergy foods like california natural or wellness simple solutions? Dick Van Patten has allergy food also.
I have not though read the whole ingredients lisiting but on the backof these bags, or even if you go to the web sights they will tell you the exact ingredients.

Blue Buffalo Wilderness formula is low-carb and doesn't have green peas in it.

No, im not looking for an allergy food exactly since he isnt allergic to too much, just the green pea. I will take a look at the blue buffalo label-im going dog food shopping tomorrow. Thanks for all the help.

You won't find any green pea in Abady products.

You want to look at Wellness Core, Instinct, Innova Evo and California Natural. I just did a quick look at the first 3 and did not see peas in them and C.N. is really good food without any junk in it. I just noticed you said Evo but I did not see any peas in the yellow or orange bag large bites.

Abady is no where near anything that is premium food. I would not get this food. Not a good food for dogs! IMO! look it up and see the ingredients!

But you can find meat and bone meals (MBM) in Abady products which is the lowest of low ingredients! And I think that its funny that there is little marketing add in's embedded in the ingredient list telling you that something like lard is good for dogs, just in case you were having doubts about their ingredients....

Foods with Marigold Flowers, Dandelions (lawn weeds), peppermint leaf, chamomile flowers, summer savory....now that makes a premium food!
