In a nut shell

My 2 year old staffy has allergy problems so we switched him to a raw diet or chicken, beef and tripe mince.

No he tends to vomit twice a day, always after eating. The allergies have disappeared since we switched to raw food but he has started to vomit a lot more. I don't think my staffy can stomach raw food, but it defo helps his allergies and his appetite

Any suggestions??

When you changed to raw did you introduce the meats one at a time?

I was just wondering if he might be intolerant to one of the meats?

Not sure, he is vomiting 30min - 60mins after eating. May look into a sensative stomach dry food diet. He loves the raw food but he has vomited 4 times today, and the vomiting seems to be getting more often. He is active, fit, and has a great appetite otherwise

Definitely nip to the vets I'd say. Ledger (nicely for me) doesn't appear to process tripe too well whereas other mince he has half a pack per meal if it has tripe he has to have a third and a duck wing else we get gravy at the other end. He rarely vomits tho unless he eats something nasty in the park and again that is usually almost instant

How long before/after exercise does he eat? How much bone/offal do you feed?
