I fed the Duck and Potato back in 2006. TJ has IBD but we were trying to rule out a food alleregy. First the Vet prescribed IVD Duck and Potato. I went thru one bag, but felt the ingredients were pure s*** - So, I switched to N.B. I went through about 4 bags and everything was good, except they were getting a tiny bit 'porky' so paranoid me switched to Merrick for a while and then to Wellness and then to Nature's Variety and also some Canidae.
Right now they are not eating any dry food, it just sits there during the day just in case. They are on the NV and really like it, I am just concerned about commerical dog food in general.
I am in the process of switching to a different Raw food:
www.morigins.com
I called and spoke with the owner and she makes it not some big dog food manufacturer. The owner told me she has ALOT of Yorkie customers and they are all doing really well.
The distributer here on Long Island that I got it from also feeds her dogs it, and says that this product is extremely fresh and well made.
My plan is to have TJ and Roxy eat a small spoon of active culture yogurt with some extra probiotics and a few dried cranberries for their AM meal. I also started to give them Virgin Organic Coconut Oil, which is suppose to be an over all health benefit (skin, ligaments, heart, etc...)
Then their PM meal will be the mOrigins.
They won't be getting any veggies or grains. Some small amounts of fruit here and there and once a week they get a scrambled brown organic cage free egg (with add nutrients as well). And I do have some healthy potty treats as well.
