Fish and potato is one of the classic hypoallergenic combinations, and there's a reason it works so well. White fish is a protein source that very few dogs are allergic to, and potato provides clean carbohydrate energy without any grains. This simple, no-fuss meal is perfect for dogs who react to everything else. It's gentle, nourishing, and usually well-tolerated even by the most sensitive stomachs.
