Re: HELP...is it too late?
Thnx all, for the inputs...
2-3 days w/o eating, I'm not sure I can put up w/ that, but...its for her own good. I'll try lessen the water step by step, although I'm not quite sure she will touch it if its not soft enough

Re: Taste of the Wild dog food
meal is, as mentioned above, just whatever protein source is in the food with the water removed. Thus, it is actually a good thing when, as an example, chicken meal is listed first since labels list ingredients by weight. So there is more chicken in a food with chicken meal listed than there is in ...

Re: Dried food advice please (my head hurts!)
They have different blends of food depending on the breed, and on what size the dog is. If you would take the time to actually look at what they have to offer instead of listening to people on the forum, you would know that. #-o eerr, correct me if I'm wrong. medium breed dog food is usually: Small...

Re: Taste of the Wild dog food
I just noticed that there is chicken MEAL.....on some of the recommended brands, only mentioned once though for example:
The chicken formula Ingredients:
Chicken
Chicken meal
etc......
I suppose stick with one MEAL word is OK.....

Re: Dried food advice please (my head hurts!)
Shiloh was on a prescription diet of Royal Canin because of frequent problem of UTI's. Because we fed them together, both Shiloh & Nahkohe were on the Royal Canin food. Maybe it was the prescription formula but their fur seemed to lack the usual luster - otherwise no issues with them being on R...

Re: I need some food help please
Have you ever considered that Barby might be allergic to something else than food too? There are many things a dog can be allergic to, not only food, but plants, herbs, acarids, etc.... You could find out with a simple blood test, and then she could be desensitized (like Coco is). WELL....YOU WILL ...

Re: Dried food advice please (my head hurts!)
When you only have a few to select from, you take the best you can get. The ProPlan may be better, but I am not familiar with the european formulas. If I'm not mistaken, you mentioned in different posting u'd tried proplan-select, and Blackwood. and Royal Canin is better than those two??? as the TS...
