I can see logic in giving breed specific formulas, for example some breeds might have more joint problems and Glucosamine would be added for this reason, as seen in both the Yorkshire terrier and Dachshund formulas. |

ALSO, IF YOU CAN HELP ME WITH THE OTHER TWO QUESTIONS, PLEASE DO SO.
WE ONLY WANT THE BEST FOR DUKE
1. He urinates in the right area, but does not poo in the right area. Please help us understand this.
2. About the same time every night he gets up and bark and whine for no reason. Please help us understand this.
Thank you,
duke's family |
My suggestion, if you are unhappy with what you are feeding Duke now, would be to research what nutrients you feel he is not getting with his current food and change foods or supplement as needed. Do trial and error runs and compare the differing results. DON'T swap his food all at once, do it gradually to avoid digestive upset. Keep in mind, that what is best for one person's dog--even the 'higher quality foods'-- may not be the best match for YOUR'S. You are the most qualified to determine what works best for Duke.
