Chicken is a great source of protein for dogs. In fact, it is most accessible too. A lot of dogs like eating chicken, and it is present in their packaged food products and treats as well. However, some dogs might not be able to digest it properly, and it can cause issues. Here are a few things that you should know:

1. Chicken and meat are the highest on allergen levels in dogs.

This means that the chances of your dog getting allergic to chicken are quite high.

2. If your dog is developing issues, you can take a test.

The test may not be too accurate. So, you can’t totally rely on that. You will need to do some observations yourself, as explained next.

3. Eliminate things from the dog’s diet and check.

The issues that your dog is developing could be because of something else also. To properly identify the same, eliminate one food at one time and see the reaction. 

You can also keep a record of everything on the Sploot app.
