Btw, it would be rare for fresh chicken to cause a problem...generally it's not the chicken in foods that causes the problem..it's the method it's processed. Hamburger meat, unless a really high grade, is loaded with fat. |
Back when she was having a lot of tummy trouble I fed her boiled rice and boiled chicken and the fresh boiled chicken just didn't sit right with her. I switched to boiled groundmeat and she did fine so I'll stick with that. I was actally going to switch her to wellness canned lamb and see how she does on that so I am glad to hear you had success with it. I figure since she will be on a bland diet at least through the weekend it will be easier to slowly introduce something new to her. Bully sticks are actually High in protein and low in fat so I am not sure aboout that. When I give her one again I guess I will see. Thank you for your response
