Question
my 1 yr old bulldog was fine then suddenly had a rash  went to vet multiple times. Diagnosed with yeast, we have used shampoos,changed dog food because she didn't want to eat it, tried antibiotics, steroids ect. nothing works. I buy expensive foods because I thought she had allergies. Some foods make it worse. What food do you feel is best for this breed. She also had recent acl tear and luxating patella that didn't heal and had to be redone last week. Do you think this may be a health issue and not an allergy?

Answer
English bulldog rash; english bulldog supplements; english bulldog allergies; english bulldog with ACL injury; alternatives to ACL surger;

Oh Dawn.... So many English Bullies have allergy problem related to food and environmental concerns.  Sorry, about the ACL and Patella... It is very common for the Vet to do surgery a few times.  
I encourage to avoid surgery and use  alternative supplements and rest, when possible.

Let's try a few simple things:  
1.  Give this kid some Ester C ( 500 mg ) 1 per day long term :  YOU can find this at any pharmacy such as Walgreens and CVS

2.  Please place her on some PURE Salmon oil - Just 1 tablespoon per day - mixed into the food - ( helpful for legs, joints, skin and coat)

3.  For yeast - The two things you will need are:
    a.  Acidophalus ( this is a probiotic)  Get 1 billion CFUs -  GNC vitamin stores sells one  that is very good ( 1-2 billion CFUs per tablet)    ( GIVE 1 per day for 120 Days)
    b.  NuVET supplement  ( it is a vitamin and supplement all in one)
MOST dogs get poor quality & weak vitamins from dog food.  ( The heating process makes the vitamins and supplements weaker.  That's why we need a good quality supplement.
NuVET is an Allergy blaster, Immune system booster and Yeast Fighter.
