On a side note, my brother has a Rhodesian Ridgeback that he's been fighting a constant battle with over allergies. He's spent soooo much at vet over it with no results. I got him to switch over to the dry food I'm using but still she was breaking out. I then found out that the canned food he was feeding her was the chunky kind, with the gravy. I told him to try the loaf style of the same brand and now she's fine...no breakouts for a good while. Turns out the chunky style used wheat gluten for the gravy. So many brands use this in their chunky formulas and it should be avoided. Just a little FYI for those that feed canned.....Jim
i wish the breeder i got milu from didn't suggest such a crappy food for my baby! (eukanuba) i mean, i even specifically asked him about what the best thing to feed is. i don't think he has any clue nor cares much about it...

quick question, what treats do you recommend?

thanks!
