Hey Denise,
Glad to hear of your growing awareness in the downsides of immune suppression as a hoped for means of controlling a chronic itch. Here's a non-toxic flea control program that works, but takes patience and attention to detail.
I'm glad you're choosing to make home prepared food, but I'm concerned you haven't mentioned a calcium source in your ingredients. Maybe you feed raw bones regularly, in which case you'll have it covered. Best to follow some well thought out guidelines and "think wolf" when you're doing so. Ian Billinghurst has a lovely guide book to raw feeding called "Give Your Dog a Bone." All the best to you and your Corgi.
