| Delicate Stomach I have a girl with a delicate stomach who is currently eating the id diet. My big guy Jake eats it as well but is a 18lb tank and doesn't really need it. My puppy is going to be ready for adult food soon and I would love to get them on the same food. I don't think the id diet is good for him so I was wondering if there is a food for delicate stomachs that would be good for my other yorkies as well. It is so hard feeding them all seperate diets they always want what everyone else is eating. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

| is it diarhea or vomitting you are referring to with delicate stomach? a limited ingredient diet can help. Sounds like your dog my have inflammatory bowel disease if vomitting or diarhea - sadly you have to go with what works when dogs have this. I feed all of mine separate foods as they have health issues and i just feed them separately twice a day |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Can you describe what you mean by "delicate stomach"? Like what happens? That may help for giving recommendations. Also, is she doing well on the iD? If yes, please list the ingredients so people can look for something similar for you.

I'm even wondering if it pays to take a chance. I did try life's abundance and she didn't do well on that so I put her back on the id. Not feeling well today but will try to list the ingredients later. Thanks

| yeah you may have more hassle if your pup gets sick again from another food than just feeding separately - i use it as my computer time and feed all three separately twice a day |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I completely agree w/ Dwerten. If your kiddo's tummy is finally doing well on the iD after all you described, I would not change a single, solitary thing. Not w/ those kinds of issues...too dangerous. Keep it simple, keep her safe.
