| You can go to this site and put in your area information to find a store near you that sells California Ntural, made by Natura: http://www.naturapet.com/display.php?d=stores-tab Shampoo is another common "itch maker" -- what are you using to wash your baby and are you rinsing twice as much as you think necessary to make sure to get all of it out? Another cause of itching is dry skin. If you think this is the cause, the addition of some essential fatty acids will probably help. Ask your vet what he would recommend, some use professionally developed capsules, others use Vit E, fish oil, flaxseed oil, olive oil, even vegetable oils, but I would want to get your vet's take on it. For my own dry skin I like the Black Currant Seed oils.

| Pet health food I suggest you look at Life's Abundance. No corn, wheat, soy, gluten, by-products, chemical preservatives, artificial flavors or dyes. Commercial pet food manufacturers cook in huge batches to fill warehouses nationwide, therefore the food sits for months before it reaches the store shelves (the average time from manufacture until you buy it is about 18 months) . Life's Abundance is cooked frequently in small batches and shipped direct to your home. Watch the video "Truth About Pet Food" before you settle on a food for your baby. |

| Thanks for that site -- I just ordered a sample pack from the site and will see how the crew likes it. If I can just find one food that all four of mine will eat that is a premium brand, I will be happy!

I have always fed kibbles made with human grade products..I have a very fussy eater...When I brought Lillie home,new puppy, she was on Nutro Ultra Puppy. Sadie (adult) was eating innova,....when she felt like it. Sadie kept going after Lillie's food so I bought the adult formula....she is eating better now than ever! I do cut up 3 or 4 chunks of the Nutro canned food with their kibbles for a little added flavor...and...I warm it for a few seconds in the micro...
