What is the best food to feed my yorkies I have 2 wonderful yorkies-I just purchased them I have been feeding them Royal Canine puppy 33 what is the very best food most nutritous and tasty to feed my dogs? I also have a recipe book for homemade food and treats-is that better? |
here is a list of premium food. I myself feed Wellness. Kibble for free feed and canned as treat or as dinner. |
My vet office said that Royal Cainin is an excellent food, and they do not sell it at their office. The tech said that they treat the dogs that they test the food on like royalty. She said our vet once said that if she had an after life, she would come back as one of those dogs. |
i have been using royal canine for years and my yorkie has always done very well on it. i use yorkshire #28. only dog food i will buy.:aimeeyork |
I was giving mine Royal Canin but they simply didn't want to eat it any longer. So now for kibble I give them Chicken Soup for the Puppy Lover's Soul and they love it. For canned they get Wellness and are doing very well on this. |
Oh and by the way, welcome to YT! You will love it here!! |
First and foremost, welcome to YT! As far as what food is "best," that is a hard question to answer. What is 'best' for one dog, may not be the 'best' for the next. You will have to determine which food best fits the individual dietary needs of YOUR dogs. If you go to the Health and Diet section, there is a list of the more recommended (at least YT member recommended) brands of food at the top in a sticky. Some of the companies will send you samples and coupons if you ask them. You also may want to try this site for research: Dog Food Review Ratings It will link you to sites that examine commercial foods, home cooking, raw feeding and supplements. Do trial and error runs with your little ones. Find a brand you like, feed if for a bit and observe the results you see. You will know when you have found a good fit for YOUR little ones by the results you see. Good luck! :) |
I feed Life's Abundance. Its a health food created by a hoistic Vet,made from all human grade ingedients, never been on a recall list and is great for your pet! Mine are all on it and doing great! Their coats are nice and shiney and full, their skin is not dry and itchy and best of all they really love it! You can check out the ingredients on my website and even order a bag or sample too :) Here is the link: Clothes, Beds, Healthy Food, Treats,Grooming products and Dental Care for your furbaby! | Pooch Potato Beds, Life's Abundance Pet foods, Dental Care Shipping for the bags...no matter what size, is only $7.50! |
I have to say I do not like Royal canine. So many ingredients I personally will not feed to my dogs. I almost went for RC, but thank goodness I did my research. Find the ingredients list here: Dog Food Reviews - Royal Canin Mini Puppy 33 - Powered by ReviewPost Find out why it's bad, here: The Dog Food Project - Ingredients to avoid You can find many other good sites about dog food reviews. I feed my dogs Orijen. Great coats, more energy, less stool, less smelly stools - and my picky shihtzu eats it. :) Of course, what works for mine might not work for yours, but you should try look for food with better ingredients. That would be a great start. |
Also watch the protein levels in dog food. From what I have read up on you want levels to be in the 20s. Stay away if it is in the 30s. Higher protein is for the larger breed of dogs that are very active. T. |
Can you tell me what you feed your dogs? Quote:
hope you get this! Thanks. |
dog I feed wellness complete health the chicken base one. I mix the wellness chicken stew in with the dry. My other dog is on zd hills diet. Older yorker should not have too much fat or pancreatic is can occur. DO NOT feed Costco chicken. Way too fatty. My vet told me that. I like the wellness brand. Recommended by my show poodle breeder. |
