Our wheaten terrier is now 11. We went thru more foods, meds, baths and money than I care to remember. A few years ago I started homecooking Rice,(potato would have been better) fish and greens adding vitamins and probiotics. We finally made a difference- Her smell went away along with that nasty greasy feel, the constant ear infections, and anal gland problems cleared up too!
She is now on Taste of the Wild Pacific Stream(it has probiotics in it), no treats,but occassional fresh boiled chicken and green beans or egg or yogurt( only a tablespoon on her kibble for a 32 lb dog ) She no longer gets any shots or flea meds-I feed two small meals a day making sure not to overfeed.We have not had a bout of diaharea or vomiting or grass eating frenzy in over a year! Her coat looks like a three year old dog- Too bad it took all those years to figure it out. I think the probiotics were the biggest help, all the meds had killed the good stuff in her digestive system. |
