inhaled chicken wing

Geez poor Harley. Hope he feels better soon

I think Luke's bumps are acne. It may also be from the detox. I'm keeping an eye on it.
Thanks.

It could be either detox or allergies. Did you feed chicken before?

We didn't feed Raw before until a couple of weeks ago. But he used to eat the Chicken Wellness Kibble. And his Innova had chicken or turkey in it before too. But Luke had red bumps under his chin from before we started feeding raw. A while back ago he wore a cone and it irritated his skin under the chin. But it returned just after we started feeding the Raw. So I'm not really sure what to think.

Feeding in metal bowls will help the acne. Make sure you put them in the dishwasher to clean them.

Thanks for the tips and info. I don't always put it in the dishwasher unless its full and ready to run (which is 2 cups in my dishwasher). I always wash the bowls right after he eats tho. I wash them in hot soapy water with Dawn antibacterial dish liquid.
The bumps are still there, but not as bad or red now. I am keeping an eye on it. I wash his face right after he eats with a warm face cloth. I don't think (hoping at least) that its not allergy. I really like the benefits that I have heard from BARF and I would like Luke to be able to experience all the good stuff of the diet. Thanks again.

I started Harley on Nutro chicken and oatmeal for sensitive stomachs. He has loose stool, but so far no real diarhea. He does have little bumps still, but I'm going to wait about a week and see if they are still left over from his raw food experience. It usually takes a whole bag of food for me to be able to tell if it doesn't agree with him. Thanks for asking!
