Natural Balance is a great brand!

That's what my boy eats and he gobbles it right up. He has always liked the Natural Balance foods.

I switched Scooter and Maya from Royal Canin 28 to Natural Balance Sweet Potato and Fish 'cause Scooter had the itchies. They love the food! We also got a sample of the potato and duck for them to try. It turns out that Scooter was not allergic to Royal Canin, but that he is allergic to tree pollen 'cause it's really high where we live right now. So I guess we'll have to get a fake Christmas tree this year.

Do they make the potato and duck in a small kibble now? 'Seems to me that I saw that somewhere.....

We just switched Kassie from Royal Canin skin support to natural balance potato and duck. She loves it but it seems like her allergies are acting out again. We are not sure if it is the food or treats we have introduced back into her diet.

Im not sure if mine was itching cause the food he was on or the shampoo I was using, but anywho this is one food he will actally eat.

Do you feed the natural balance roll food? I just purchased a small roll to try because I can't find anything Topper will eat more than once. He liked the beef haven't tried the turkey.

No I buy small bites potato and duck because its allergy formula. Although im not sure he has allergies but he eats it. Petco will give you a refund if you buy a bag and he doesnt like it.

The sweet potato and fish is also an allergy formula, but I don't think they have it in a small kibble yet. Scooter and Maya eat the regular kibble and don't have any problem with the size.

For those who feed DVP potato and duck~~do you feed the canned and the kibble or just one or the other?
I will leave out the DVP kibble for him to have available at all times but I want to add in some canned food because Scooter is not eating his DVP kibble as well as I would like him to. I found a can of Science Diet that I had left over from my previous dog, gave him a few spoonfulls and he gobbled it up. I think the kibble might still be alittle too hard for him right now (8 weeks). I have been softening some with alittle warm water and he'll eat this sometimes (sometimes it just sits there). Tomorrow I will go to Petco and get some DVP canned Duck and Potato. TIA

Yes, Jack, Alpha love Potato and duck kibbles. I feed them some of the turkey roll also. I use to do the wet food but they don't like it as much. I also found something interesting. Go on the web site www.naturalbalance.net and they have a heat,serv meat for them all you do is nuke it and put it over the kibbles.

But be warned its not here yet. (sorry) I asked Alpha and they said maybe some time in the furture. I wonder if we could order it.?
