One way to avoid food related allergy is to avoid ingredients commonly used in dog food (chicken, corn, beef etc.). I would recommend trying something your dog has not been exposed to (like lamb, rice, barley, fish, venison). There are a number of allergy sensitive foods on the market these days. I don't think feeding raw meat only will solve the problem, it may create nutrient deficiency as well as not help the allergy problem. I would strongly suggest that if you want to switch to a raw diet you work closely with a veterinarian to come up with a raw diet that will meet all your dogs nutritional needs! Best of luck to you! Those food allergies can be PITA!
