| Throwing Up Food I just went back to home cooking Izzy. He eats Dr. Harvey's Canine Health, he loves it but will throw it up some times. I mix it with ground turkey, or ground chicken and add olive oil...just like the directions. What do you think it could be? Im thinking the meat but I cant pin point why. I fully cook the meat and I dont add anything to it.

Ellie used to do that on Science Diet. Since homecooking she stopped.

| I stopped giving ground turkey because I thought it might have skin and fat in it. Turkey skin is a major trigger for pancreatitis. Throwing up is one of the symptoms. I highly doubt that is going on with Izzy because he is only doing it occasionally... Ellie gets white meat only and oil (canola or olive) added. She had a round of pancreatitis a few weeks ago and it isn't fun. If this started as soon as you switched to Dr. Harvey's, there could be something in the mixture making him nauseous. I guess the only way to know for sure is to start eliminating/replacing foods to see what combination he does best on.

| I've read of a couple of people having problems with this food...Is there another food you could try? Honest Kitchen? or maybe you could homecook 100% instead of using a mix?

| It's much safer, healthier and cheaper to home cook. |
