Help finding food comparable to Evo Senior

• Help finding food comparable to Evo Senior marlania Posted : 4/28/2013 1:39:38 PM Hi, Due to the recent recall on Evo, I can't get my hands on Evo Senior, which I feed to my oldest dog, Brown, who is 14. I'm looking for something with comparable nutritional values, especially something high in protein. Brown has hypothyroidism, but he's actually underweight. I know that sounds weird, but I think that occurs in 10% or so of dogs with hypothyroidism. Prior to being diagnosed, he had dropped what looked like a good bit of weight and his muscle tone looked poor also (his coat was atrocious too). Between thyroid meds and his new food, he looked so much better and became the most annoyingly active super senior dog I've met lol. Here is a link to Evo Senior's nutritional values. http://www.evopet.com/products/1621 Can anyone suggest a similar brand?

• kpwlee Posted : 4/28/2013 2:12:54 PM  This one is fairly close http://www.orijen.ca/products/dog-food/dry-dog-food/senior-dog/ which is orijen senior - likely will cost more but not crazy more (although I don't use evo so am not 100% on what that costs) 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• kpwlee Posted : 4/28/2013 6:24:36 PM Happy to help. I love orijen foods but admit the prices are very high. Hope it does the trick for him! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• marlania Posted : 5/5/2013 9:26:28 AM So I just checked out the site where I order Brown's food, and they have the large bags of Evo Senior in stock again, which includes a disclaimer stating that all Evo products that were part of the recall had been pulled and current Evo products for sale are new and not part of the recall. Brown has done well on this food, and it doesn't upset his stomach very much, which is already upset enough from motion sickness. Would you guys stick with Evo Senior or switch to Orijen Senior? I'm thinking about staying with Evo because I know it works for him, but I still want opinions (plus I don't want to pay $75 for a bag he can't stomach...I will pay $75 for one he can, however lol). 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• compoundia Posted : 6/7/2013 2:21:07 AM According to me, whichever food you decide to feed him make sure you add a spoonful of pumpkin plus probiotics and digestive enzymes to every meal until he is completely used to the new food. IU think this is the perfect time to induce your pet with rotational feeding habit. When you find one food that she does well on, it is a great time to start looking for the next food that she does well on until you have a few foods selected fro him. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
