I would suggest doing allergy testing.... it costs about $200 bucks although a friend just had it done for 175 and they can tell you exactly what your dog is allergic to.... if you are planning on feeding venison and duck you might find that a raw or homemade diet could be a bit more expensive unless you hunt .... that having been said.....
I would recommend the allergy testing so you would know exaclty what to include in your diet.... I have been feeding raw for about 6 years now and while I started with a BARF Diet... I now feed more of a Milbrose Retrievers diet ... which means I read alot of books and basically feed my dogs a good variety of different foods and meats and they are doing great..... I have weaned puppies onto a raw diet.... I have switched over very young puppies.... who have all grown to be healthy and beautiful dogs..... I do believe in variety and if I layed out what I feed it would probably be a bit confusing but basically I feed an assortment of meats and fish..... turkey, chicken, duck, beef, lamb, mackeral, sardines..... baked beans..... sweet potatos, a variety of ground veggies although not as many as I used to.... I do feed grains... specifically oatmeal because my dogs like it well they all like it except for Cuinn..... but many dogs have trouble with grains.... I feed yogurt and cottage cheese.... they get dinner leftovers... the other night they had shepherds pie and sweet potato.....
so I can't make suggestions but I can tell you that my dogs are healthy and shiny coats and loads of energy..... but you need ot have that allergy testing done first.
