After taking him to the vet and confirming he was underweight the recommended switching his food to a puppy soft.
With my other yorkie I fed him a Iams/Nutro mix. That was the vets idea. So I bought Nutro for my new baby. I decided to look online and found an article that in the last couple months there have been numerous illnesses and 6 deaths related to the Nutro food. It hasnt been confirmed, but the evidence seems rather obvious.
My question is: What is a safe food to feed my puppy? Is Eukaneuba a good food? |
NO Eukanuba is NOT good. Any food you can get at wal mart or Petsmart is not a good food. While people will go back and forth on what acutally IS good food... some good brands are Orijen, Wellness, Solid Gold.
You can usually go on each website and find a store near you. When you change ... expect some diarrhea... to put it bluntly your dogs have been eating "crap" (sorry.. it's like us eating McDonalds every day) so when you introduce a high quality food their body is going to go through a cleansing. Also after being on this food for a bit they will poop MUCH less. Beacuse all the ingredients are high quality their body uses more of it and has less to poop out.
