so... what's everyone feeding these days?

Taste of the Wild w/a variety of toppers - I rotate canned versions of EVO, Wellness CORE, Blue, Solid Gold, Evangers, some others.  My parents are now doing TOTW, too, with their Dobe.  Combined w/Oma's Pride Raw (sep meals) they are finally seeing resolution to some skin issues.

Since he did well on Blue have you thought about trying their limited ingredient line. I think its called Basics. 

I use TOTW (seafood) for Willow cause she was having skin/fur problems and it's done wonders for her.  It was the first one I tried and it worked so luckily I didn't have to experiment! (or supplement)

I saw the Earthborn at the store too and it did look good.  Or, how about Pinnacle.  They've got some new limited ingredient diets that looked close to Blue Basics and they've also got grain free now too.  It's so hard when you don't know exactly what is causing the itching. 

The foods are all getting so expensive now.  Even the "cheaper" food lines are expensive around here.

Mine are eating TOTW, they rotate between the pacific stream one and the high prairie one.  They are doing well on it.  My only issue is the price, but I don't really have any cheap options where I live so I'm stuck with paying $76 for 30lbs.  I've had them on Eukanuba, Eagle Pack, and now this.  I tried Orijen (the fish one), but Timmy HATED it.  Like he refused to eat it - I've never seen him do that with a food before.  So Sadie ate that whole bag since I had to buy the large 30 or 40lb one, LOL. 

 We are using Orjen fish - it works best for beastie.  We've used Arcana Pacifica (grain free fish) and also TOTW fish with reasonable results but there's no doubt for him Orjen is a step up.

We also do several raw meals and some canned (Canine caviar beaver and Tripett Beef tripe at the moment)

 FWIW the only downside with TOTW for a dog with the itchies is that it sure isn't a simple formula. 

I spent most of last year homecooking, until I became overwhelmed. I then tried a dehydrated mix from Dr. Harvey's that you add raw or cooked protein to. Right now, all three are on The Honest Kitchen dehydrated raw for breakfast and premium/natural kibble for dinner. I am trying a new kibble, California Natural Venison grain-free, limited ingredient formula. I like the looks of the kibble - shape, size, smell and clean (lack of crumb dust). We'll see how they do on it.

Everybody currently has the itchies. Here we do have sensitivities though (chicken, chicken fat, lamb, garlic, MSM, possibly flax, possibly barley). Not sure if the itchies are related to flax, as THK uses quite a bit of it. I also think it's partly due to the dry, cold, winter weather and they are just not drinking nearly the amount of water they do in other seasons. I'm usually driven crazy by the itchies of eczema and daily I've been drinking a ton of herbal tea (water) ...my skin feels and looks much better this winter!

 Before I switched Maze to raw, I finally found a food that worked for her. Cal. Nat Herring and Sweet potato.  The prices wouldn't matter since I'm in Canada But she did well on that while I was feeding it. And this was after trying lord know how many different brands for her itchies. 

dog food!

 TOTW here (lamb). And when we have made a trip to Vegas Ginger gets Addiction Kangaroo and Apples..I just cannot always make an hour and a half trip one way to get her food.

I have fed Earthborn w good results, but their fish formula had too large kibble for Ginger to eat full time

Natural Balance's LIDs here.  For awhile I was rotating between the varities (except for the chicken and rice one).  But I've been sticking with the Duck and Potato the last few months.

Pirate and Wendy both get THK for meals, though.
