W/that being said, I feed my guys Canine Caviar Open Sky. It's grain free duck w/chickpeas. We rotate between Wilderness, venison w/split peas, they seem to do the best on those 2 formulas. I chose this food bc I have 2 w/yeast issues & they need a food w/no potato, no 'sugary' food. Plus I like that it's not a busy food w/all kinds of different proteins bc I have another that's intolerant of a few ingredients (that I know of, pumpkin, beef maybe chicken & eggs) & if he was to be intolerant of a kibble w/a bunch of different proteins & ingredients, I'll never figure out what it was that triggered it. They also eat premade raw for 1 meal.
Lastly (I promise haha!), is he's doing well on RC? I made a huge mistake by getting another brand that's very popular awhile back & all my guys had some negative issues w/ it. Mimi had anal gland issues & everybody else had softer poopies on it...so we switched back to CC. Learned my lesson, why switch when they're doing well on it.

Well actually one night he was itching a lot and it lasted ihrough a few days. I mean really itching. Although I did just give him a dose of Triflexis (which I usually only need to give him once every three months. I only give it when I see fleas again). But it has never caused him any problems yet, (the Triflexis). But he seems ok now. the itching lasted a couple days. It was some sort of reaction. Anyway, on researching I read that a natural dog food was healthier. He's on the royal canine for yorkies right now.

I'm not sure I will give him Triflexis again. Seeing him itch like that really stressed me out. That had to be what it was.
