I have an 11 yr old male yorkie with atypical cushings, currently being treated with supplements. He has recently developed a heart murmur 3 or 4/6 and was in congestive heart failure. Fortunately our vet has stabilized him with meds for now but recommends a diet change to Science Diet HD, I HATE Science Diet. We currently feed Solid Gold Holistic Blendz but need a food with low sodium and low fat. I'm sure that home cooking would be the best but unfortunately that is not going to be a option. I would greatly appreciate suggestions. I have searched & searched and get more and more confused especially with the recalls. Thanks in advance for any advice you can share.
