If your dog has been diagnosed with Celiac Disease then they need to be on a gluten free diet, but perhaps if your dog has some other health problems he or she may also benefit from this diet.
My 13 year old American Cocker Spaniel, Mutsy, started having skin problems a little over a year ago. Her skin would itch so badly that she would chew and scratch herself until she bled. She visited many veterinarians and tried many different treatments to cure this problem, but nothing worked.
I decided to start her on a complete allergy free diet, eliminating everything from gluten to chicken. Within 2 weeks, she stopped itching completely! Her skin is healing now and the fur she lost over the spots she gnawed away at is starting to grow back!
Recently, a new gluten free dog food was brought onto the market. It is produced by the All American Pet Company and is called, Grrr-nola Natural Dog Food. In addition to being gluten free it is supplemented with vitamins and omega 3 and 6 fatty acids.

If you're on vacation in Los Angeles and only have a little time between sightseeing adventures and want to grab a bite to eat, there are many gluten free options.
Although, I have spoken about the following chains in previous posts I thought it would be appropriate to mention them again here as they all originated in California.In-N-Out Burger was founded in 1948 by Harry Snyder and his 
wife Esther and is headquartered in Irvine, California. They have locations throughout the Western United States with many of them in the Los Angeles area. Their delicious fresh made french fries are gluten free and if you are feeling in the mood for a burger you can order it "protein style" - meaning it will be wrapped in lettuce instead of a bun.
For more information, visit www.in-n-out.com.
A great place for a cold drink on a hot day is Jamba Juice. Jamba Juice was founded in 1990 and has many locations in the Los Angeles area. All of their smoothies with the exception of Pomegranate Heart Happy are gluten free. All of their boosts and super boosts with the exception of Daily Vitamin, Energy, and Heart Happy are gluten free too!

Pinkberry is another great place to try especially on a warm day. It is an upscale frozen dessert restaurant headquartered in Los Angeles, California. The first store was opened in January 2005 by Korean Americans, Shelly Hwang and Young Lee. It is often referred to as "crackberry" for its cult-like following. All of their yogurt is gluten free!
The current flavor selection includes:
*Original
*Green Tea
*Pomegranate
*Coffee
*Coconut
*Passion Fruit
*Tropical Swirl
Fruit toppings include: strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, bananas, kiwi, mango, and pineapple. Seasonal fruit toppings include pomegranate seeds, lychee, valencia oranges, and bing cherries.

My favorite place to stay in Los Angeles, California is at The Beverly Hills Hotel with their world-famous restaurant, The Polo Lounge.
The Polo Lounge is open from 7 AM - 1:30 AM and serves breakfast, lunch, dinner, and late-night suppers. They also have both outdoor and indoor seating. If you dine during lunch and dinner in the summer you will get to enjoy a piano accompaniment alternating with light jazz on the patio. During Sunday Brunch, jazz music is also featured.
Their menus have an extensive range of options for those on a gluten free diet including fresh squeezed juices, smoothies, fruits, berries, eggs, omelettes, fish, caviar, soup, salads, risotto, meats, poultry, etc. They have such a range of fresh ingredients and are more than willing to create any dish you could imagine.
It's even better to know that they are very aware of Celiac Disease and the dangers of cross-contamination. They also told me the last time I stayed there that if I were to let them know in advance about my gluten free diet they would get the proper ingredients to prepare gluten free breads, waffles, and pancakes for me! So, keep that in mind when booking a reservation!
