is goodlife recipe dog food good for a dog with allergies?

this what goodlife recipe dog food has in it. INGREDIENTS:
GROUND CORN, CHICKEN-BY-PRODUCT MEAL, CORN GLUTEN MEAL (SOURCE OF LUTEIN*), BEEF, WHOLE GRAIN BROWN RICE, ANIMAL FAT, RICE, NATURAL POULTRY FLAVOR, WHEAT FLOUR, DRIED PEAS, DRIED BEET PULP, POTASSIUM CHLORIDE, DICALCIUM PHOSPHATE, SALT, VEGETABLE OIL (SOURCE OF LINOLEIC ACID), CARAMEL COLOR, CALCIUM CARBONATE, TAURINE, TITANIUM DIOXIDE, VITAMINS (dl-ALPHA TOCOPHEROL ACETATE [SOURCE OF VITAMIN E], L-ASCORBYL-2-POLYPHOSPHATE [SOURCE OF VITAMIN C*], VITAMIN A ACETATE, THIAMINE MONONITRATE [VITAMIN B1], VITAMIN D3 SUPPLEMENT, d-CALCIUM PANTOTHENATE, VITAMIN B12 SUPPLEMENT, RIBOFLAVIN SUPPLEMENT [VITAMIN B2], BIOTIN, CHOLINE CHLORIDE), IRON OXIDE, DRIED CARROTS, DRIED SPINACH, DRIED TOMATOES, MINERALS (ZINC SULFATE, COPPER SULFATE, POTASSIUM IODIDE), CHLOROPHYLL, MARIGOLD MEAL, NATURALLY PRESERVED WITH MIXED TOCOPHEROLS

Nope, bad, poor quality food. Corn is one of the most common allergens for dogs, and it’s the first and third ingredient on the list. It also worries me that a by-product is the main meat source, this can even include feathers (basically any part of the animal that is not suitable for human consumption). As a general rule, avoid foods with any type of corn, wheat, or soy, especially with allergies, and I prefer foods with no byproducts, though that is my personal preference (I wouldn’t ask my dogs to eat something made of ingredients I wouldn’t eat.) http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/ has reviews and ratings for almost every food on the market, take a look and do some research and go from there.

Want to Start Living Gluten Free Every Day? – It Is Not That Difficult

Living gluten free every day can be a very hard if you have recently found out that you are intolerant of gluten or if you are sensitive to wheat based products.  Starting to live the gluten free lifestyle can be a daunting task, but beginners can quickly get starting learning how to keep wheat out of their diet by following the simple steps of living the lifestyle without wheat products.  Just like everyone else you are probably beginning to ask yourself what to do and what do I need to do to get started in the right direction.  Following a few simple steps can make all the difference in your life.

The first thing that you need to do is look in your pantry and see what you find.  You probably found a loaf of bread, right?  That bread was most likely made of wheat based flour that contains gluten.  Now that bread needs to be replaced with something that your body can tolerate.  Bread can be made from a variety of types of flour that do not contain the proteins found in gluten that cause your sensitivity issues.  If you love sandwiches like I do, keeping them in your diet is simply a way of life. 

 
So how can you keep sandwiches in your gluten free diet and keep living gluten free every day?

Find a good tasting rice based bread.  This is one of the most important things that you can do early in your struggle with gluten sensitivity symptoms.   If you have already found good rice based bread, but you are still not very happy with its texture, try toasting it.  This makes the texture of the bread much more tolerable.
What else can I do to keep living gluten free every day?

Get a rice cooker.  Replace the missing starch in your diet is also very important in your struggle with gluten intolerance.  Living without wheat can be very difficult if those basic starches in your diet are not replaced.  Brown rice can be an excellent replacement for bread.

Learning how to live without gluten may not be easy, but if you learn the basics of protecting yourself, you can still eat the foods that you love.   The hardest part of living without gluten is getting started and finding all the information that you possibly can.
