I don't think it matters much, but if Odie likes whichever one you try, and does well on it, try the other flavor after a month or so; you can then rotate between the two formulas.
Karen thanks for your comments & suggestions. And many thanks to all who replied to my post. The response is very heartwarming.
I knew I had forgotten something earlier; We took him to our Vet about 4 or 5 months ago He could't find anything wrong w…
Cool. Thanks for the advice and information, everyone!! I'll look into the dog food for emergencies and continue doing what we're doing, tweeking and see what happens. I love that she's such an enthusiastic eater now. It's really fun to cook for her…
I find with human cooking the best way to get fat out of liquids is ti refrigerate them overnight and then you can just take the solid layer of fat off the top.
Tina, I agree with what Jane has said about sticking with the homecooking and tweaking your recipes to try & improve the stool consistency. A good homecooked diet is better for any dog than even the finest quality dry food. Do try to cut back the fa…
Karen or Lynne are probably better equipped to comment on the fat, but my gut tells me that if the meat is fatty then the "broth" from the cooker may be too high in fat for them. If I cook chicken I do use the broth in the "batch" of food. If I cook…
I've just recently increased the protein to 40 or 50%. I wasn't doing quite that much before... And I have decreased the veggies. And just switched from white rice to brown on this last batch of food. So maybe I should give that some time and wait a…
I am homecooking for Guinness. I started because of his IBS diagnosis. It has made a huge difference. Always solid poops...not too hard or too soft. I'm wondering what home cooking you're feeding. It took me a couple of weeks to get the right compos…
Karen where do you buy Orijen and/or EVO? I found it on Amazon, but shipping, I'm sure, would be outrageous. (we live in the Boonies... but I can get to Denver pretty easily...)
I've been homecooking for a couple of months now. Boo LOVES it. She wa…
My Sophie had a problem with soft stools & we never exactly pin-pointed the cause. I was very hopeful about a natural product called diarsanyl, but it didn't help -- you might try it, though. The vet put her on a short course of metronidazole which…
Richard, there has been a major recall of Nature's Variety Raw Products for salmonella contamination. The company has changed hands recently and the quality control has gone south. We are not recommending any of their products at this time.
Just a thought...by any chance does Odie eat bully sticks? The reason I ask is because we went thru this with our dog Maddy on and off for months. It was very frustrating. We switched to TOTW pacific stream and that definitely made a huge difference…
