I have no goal for my dog, except to eat. But when it come to eating, it is a problem. He's not the kind of dog to eat when you put food down, but he did when I added this new food to his old food. Normally, he has to play in order to eat. |
Dogs who are on high protein, or high carb, or med protein/med carb diets can all have GI issues. It has to do more with the individual dog. Like EllieMay said, it's good to stick w/ what you're feeding (or similar) if it is working.
Okay, so you don't care if it's dry/wet/raw...so, one thing to try would be pre-made raw. It can do wonders for some picky dogs. This is why I was asking you what your goal in feeding was, bc I thought you said in the past you did not want to use wet or raw. Am I confused?
Btw, my dogs have been on a higher protein (or 'low carb') diet for about 3+ years now, with no GI issues.
