I buy NV, Stella and Chewy's, Primal, as well as Dr. Bamford and Pat McKay recpies by Harmony Farms (fresh meat with organs, veggies etc.).
He started on Iams Kibble (previous parents) which I did not like and so I switched him to Royal Canin Puppy. I did research into raw and after he was finished with his little bag of kibble I switched him to raw when he was 4 1/2 months old. When he was eating kibble, his vet prescribed Missing Link as a supplement and Forti Flora to strengthen his digestive system (never had a problem but just being proactive). Once I switched him to raw, I gave him holistic liquid supplements from ESP (Essential Soluble Plantcell): Multi Vitamin Mineral, Immune Building Formula, and Skin-Hair Joint Formula. He is now taking plant cell organic supplements from Flying Bassett Organics as well as Omega 3 and 6 Fish Oil from Kronch along with his raw food. He has just never really devoured the raw food and since his castration, it seems like he wants cooked food more and more. He won't touch kibble now and he was fine with it before I switched him to raw. I have resorted to getting food toppers (dehydrated 100 % chicken/sirloin steak) to mix in with his raw to get him to eat it. I love all the benefits from a raw diet but I also want him to like what he is eating. I just got him a little sister so I want to figure out a good system so I can have them both on it and it will be less difficult with her.
