this past w/end I tried to switch her food to Pinnacle Trout and Sweet Potato- she is suffering bad skin allergies and has breakage and redness on both sides of her rib cage. she is also hypotyroid and on soloxine.
she became severely ill Friday night after her 3rd day slowly introducing the new food. she vomited for 10 hrs and finally she is feeling better. I decided to quite the Pinnacle immediately. So now she is back on Hills pres diet D/D and I want her off of this. this food is making her itch still really bad. It is garbage and I hate feeding them this food.
With the protein loss she is currently on benzapril 2 xs a day- for high blood pressure and protein loss.
Appreciate anyones advise on what they feed if they experienced protein loss as such. She needs something with low phosphorus and low sodium. Please help. |
this food was prescribed becasue I told the vet that I felt that my dogs were allergic to corn. It was hard for them to digest and so she talked with a nutritionist from Hills and then told us to do the Hills pres diet D/D. I would rather try a different food instead of keep them on this food. There never had allergies until they were put on Purina NF. And that was becasue my other dog Samie was producing crystals in her urine. They both became highly allergic to that food so that was when the new vet said to do the D/D. If it's allergies they are having because of food they were fine when they were on Nutro Natural Choice. The vet HATES when I discuss food with her. I don't think she know much about nutrition at all. And i have read on other forums that Vet's do not know much when it comes to the best food.
