I feed my Siberian Husky TOTW as it is a great food with REAL ingredients, and it is not as expensive as other diets. I feed her dry and canned mixed. She is absolutely gorgeous and healthy, and I love and recommend this food. I choose; Taste of the Wild Pacific Stream Canine Formula ...

Dog food causing gas?
I adopted a pit/lab/boxer mix from the humane society almost four weeks ago, and in the past week or so her gas has become almost unbearable. I feed my dogs Blue Buffalo fish and (something I forget) so I feed them a high quality food. When we adopted Caliope she had severe diarrhea from stress...

Grandma Lucy's Artisan
Have you guys tried this food? It is freeze dried instead of dehdrated so supposedly has "more" nutrition than THK (as you know I am an enormous fan of THK). Anyway, I got a sample bag of it and the dogs went wild over it. It is venison/potato. Rehydrates just like THK and would be a nice option...

How much to feed?
How much should I be feeding my now 7mo. old male Aussie-he weighs about 40# now? And should I still be dividing it up to twice daily feeds or once a day? Thanks.

Ticked Off - Taste of the Wild buying program (miranadobe)

RMB Question
I got some raw beef bones and I am trying to give them to Rory to help with her teeth cleaning. She does not sit for hours and chew it up and finish it up. She only works at it for maybe 20 mins (if that) and she walks away. Can I put these back in the freezer and just give it back to her later? I'd...

RAW diet
So, I have read about this in the past.. and I'm actually considering putting both my Chihuahuas on raw diets. I think if I honestly buy the meat when it's on sale, I can freeze what I don't need. I've always thought it would be too expensive, but I think if I shop wisely then I will...

so... what's everyone feeding these days?
So it's looking more and more like I'm going to have to switch Benny's food to something else... the itchies are just not going away - and I can't afford these crazy supplements that people are recommending (mainly - dinovite). He's currently eating Wellness Complete Health - but...

Educating the non-believer (food)
Does anyone have tips for educating people on dog nutrition? As in, trying to help teach someone who thinks the grocery store brands are "just fine" for their dog, when the dog has obvious issues linked to food? I have a relative who's dog is overweight and gets ear infections often...

kibble choice for pom or dogs with hypothyroid/Cushing's?
My last pom was diagnosed Cushing’s disease and hypothyroid when he was 5 years old. Now my other 5 year old pom has the same diagnosis. While still resisting my current vet’s recommendation of Science Diet/Royal Canine, I am getting uneasy on the diet. I’ve been feeding my Pomeranians Innova, TOTW,...

Senior, skinny dogs
I noticed today that Lexi has dropped 3 pounds and has the 'skinny old dog' appearance. I am taking her in soon for her annual checkup, and she had recent bloodwork in January. All looked good. I am feeding her the same amounts as usual, I'm assuming maybe she is not processing protein...

Turkey Dog Food (with no chicken)
I have a chocolate lab who is allergic to chicken (lucky me). When he eats foods with chicken in it he gets yeast infections in his ears. Sadly almost all dog food has chicken in it (when you read the ingredients). I have tried almost all "flavors" and he seems to do best on turkey. He used...
