I'm not a big fan of DVP's food bc the protein content is low. If it were me, at this point - if I wanted to go the kibble route, I'd do a fish kibble. I think Wellness Core Ocean is great - the protein content is in the 30s, they kept their ingredients reined in a bit, and it's just an excellent kibble overall. Fish is hypoallergenic too - and not something she has tried yet. But again, since she's currently on raw - I kind of doubt this is food related (were you feeding beef and chicken though?).
I *think* I know what state you're in, but I don't want to type it out since you don't have it in your avatar - but I was looking at Pollen.com - and I think the allergens are high right now where you are, so I wonder if it's just seasonal?
This has got to be so frustrating Brooke! |
Thanks Ann!
Tatum has only had the Lamb and Venison flavors in the raw - no Chicken or Beef
And I totally hear ya about the protein content of the NB...I do know that it's low, and meat ISN'T the first ingredient on the list and I would definitely prefer that it would be, BUT....at this point I tell ya girl, I am just about willing to try anything
You might be totally right too - it may not help in the slightest...but darn, I figure it won't really "HURT" to try
I do LOVE feeding the Raw...I know that it's a fantastic food and the kiddos absolutely love the stuff...but I thought I'd just give an allergy formula specific food a shot, just so I can say that I tried it LOL.
Oh - and about the Wellness Core Ocean...ya know, I am going to try that out too. I DO have the Wellness Core Original, as well as the Wellness Core Reduced Fat (for Mrs. Chubs) - but we are going out of town this weekend and I am going to pick up a bag of the Ocean as none of the Core products are available where I live. I had to get the owner of one of the local pet stores here in town to order the Original and Reduced Fat Wellness formulas, but STUPID ME didn't order the Ocean - HOW DUMB!!!
She was on the Orijen 6 Fish a while back and MAN oh MAN did she and Stedman both
LOVE the food, but WOW Tatum gained a TON of weight on that stuff - and FAST!!
It blew my mind how quickly she gained...I was just amazed. SO, needless to say, since she was already a chub, I had to take her off of it. Shortly after that I think is around when we started the Raw. And as for the Pollen levels here...yes I'm sure they are SKY HIGH....
I've checked a few times, in the past, and we were always the highest on the charts - sickens me!!! LOL
