It's what he's been on since he could eat kibble and it really agrees with him. I have considered switching brands when we transition to adult food, probably to Wellness, but I still haven't decided.
I just saw this morning, mention of other RC feeds that still have ok formulas. I haven't looked specifically at the RC X-Small formulas yet.

Specifically in this thread, it was the breed specific RC Yorkie formula that really went to crap. RC Yorkie 28 became RC Yorkie, two different formulas that were and are Yorkie specific. That one specifically, I would run away from!

The more generic breed RC formulas that I looked at this morning had a more favorable formula, not perfect. RC's rep could have cleared that up, he/she didn't. If I had only known this before I purchased the Wellness Complete Health Toy Senior, I would have at least looked at RCs other feed options that I felt matched my dog's profile.

I highly recommend looking at the most current ingredient list you can find for the specific formula, whatever brand, you are considering. I think there were 4 RC X-Smalls and another 12 RC Mini formulas to consider.

Yorkiemom is using RC Mini Adult is my current understanding, not the RC Yorkie that I opened this thread with. She has had very good results with this formula.

Wheh! Now that was just too easy! LOL NOT!

Minor setback with Gucci, I hand fed him the remaining Orijen 6 fish day before yesterday, it was just a little bit, he didn't eat much of anything yesterday but he drank way more water than is typical. Hoping he'll get back to eating a normal portion of his Wellness Complete Health Toy Senior today. Yep, I screwed up! I accept that. Moving forward.
