Default Any dogs sensitive to Chicken and not Turkey, or vice versa??

I think I figured out our poo problem.... Chicken! It seems to be the common link as to when he has flare ups. He seems to do fine with turkey.

I would think they would be really similar...

I thought the same thing...but Cheyenne has issues with Chicken, but not Turkey or Duck. I had switched her to a lamb based formula, but now have her on a turkey/duck formula and no problems. I'm tempted to try a chicken based food again...just to see if she maybe outgrew it, but don't want to tempt fate!

Stosh doesn't do well with chicken either- he finally was able to get the message through my thick skull when he saw chicken in his bowl, backed away and hid under the kitchen table. He's not crazy about turkey but likes duck- he's more of a red meat eater

No, right now he is on Blue Buffalo Large Breed Basics which is Turkey Based

I feel like everytime he was on a chicken food he eventually couldnt tolerate it... and I had been giving him chicken canned food with the turkey and now he has another bout. I feel like Chicken is a culprit here but I am taking him to the vet in an hour so I will get some testing done!

My Raven doesn't do well with chicken, but is fine with turkey as well. I feed BB Large Breed Fish & Oatmeal or BB Longevity Adult, which is also fish based.
