Re: Sunday Social - Dog Food

We have been feeding Simply Nourish Salmon and Sweet Potato. I think that it now has peas in it.

When forever foster Jake came to us, he had problems with diarrhea, sometimes very severe. We eventually worked out this food was good for him, but we also had to have several rounds of a prescription probiotic from our vet, as well as a round or two of metronidazole. This was all part of their protocol for serious GI issues. Luckily we did not have to go farther than that. We also discovered early on that Jake was being overfed. A dog can only digest so much food, so we gradually reduced his food in quantity.

We did find that canned pumpkin always agreed with him, which is why we went to a sweet potato-type of grain-free food. All of our goldens seem to like salmon.

We also give them a can of Evanger's chicken (only-nothing else) or beef & chicken daily, shared by the three of them.

Sincerely,

PJ Tonkin

J has been on Acana Lamb and Apple for 3 years now and is doing very well. I was pleased to see it ranked so well on the Dog Food Adviser. Thank you Debbie for letting us know about that.

Re: Sunday Social - Dog Food

We feed both dogs Iams Vetrinary Formula Skin and Coat Plus (fish and potato) because of Gage's skin allergies. Same thing, it is just easier to feed both of them the same thing. I will highly recommend ordering from Chewy.com. We used to be able to only get this food from the Doctor's office who sold it to us at their cost; however, it was still out of the way to have to pick it up. We tried this site and loved it. The price was the same and we also get free shipping.
