Wow!!!! when i got jersey she was on chicken soup for the puppy lovers soul and i switched her to RC puppy and she wouldnt eat unless she was starving basically. To make a long story short...she was losing weight, had blood drawn and it showed very low kidney function and all her levels were wacked out. the vet said RC is a very good food and didnt believe the food was a problem. he suggested a bile acid test to see exactly what was going on..i agreed and her test came back normal. i changed her food to ceasers (against my wishes with all the by-product in it) but i was desperate to get her to eat...she ate it and ate baby food with no issues. she went in every week after all this to get weighed. they believe it must have been her diet. the breeder suggested putting her back on CS...i ordered wet and dry and she's been eating with no issues and gained 4oz last week. i now truly believe there was an issue with the food and thats why she wasnt eating (it sounds weird but it kind of makes sense to me).

Daisy was rushed to the vet because out of no where she had diarreah and vomitting. they asked about her food and i said she's still on RC YT28 and they said it was a very good food. they did blood, had to re-hydrate her etc. i believe this issue was also because of the RC. she is now eating the CS Puppy with Jersey and I've had NO problems with either one.

I personally believe it was the RC.
