Charlie is eating Orijen and Solid Gold wet food. This is a little guy who is 10 years old, and when he came to live with me in April, his coat was thin, itchy and his skin looked terrible. Thanks to a diagnosis of Thyroid deficiency, a little pill twice a day and quality food, he has the beginning of a beautiful coat, brighter eyes.
My only downfall is that I feed him too much because Orijen is dense, he gained weight and I am cutting out a small amount of Orijen to lose a few pounds.
What surprised me is that vets are not really savvy about pet food, and push that Science Diet as a cure all.
Good post and I hope this acts as a guide to proper nutrition.
PS When Charlie has been on Orijen for six months, I am changing over to Evo for the next six months. |
