| Hootie & Hobbs have been eating Natural Balance Duck & Potato Small Bites for awhile now. I've gotten EXCELLENT results! Hobbs' skin has never looked better! And I LOOOOOVE how tiny the bites are! |

| I will say this though... I've been feeding NB for about a month and I've noticed some weight loss in both Chip and Smokey and they seem to be eating more of a quanitity than the other food I was feeding.

| Sweet Potato and Duck I bought a bag of sweet potato and duck small bites for Bella and she won't eat them as usual. I have a whole bag she won't touch (along with many other bags of different brands). She was eating the Natural Balance rolls until recently. All of a sudden she doesn't want that. Now we are back to eating home made food again. She is so picky, I just don't know what to feed her. I liked the Natural Balance rolls for nights when I don't cook. She doesn't like any of the recommended canned food I have read about on here. Now she won't eat the Natural Balance. AAARRRGGGHHH |

Thanks, everyone. I think I'm going to look into getting some Natural Balance and trying it over the weekend. Hopefully it's as easy to get as Canidae and Merrick have been.

| I started feeding Regan the NB small bites potato & duck (she just wouldn't touch the NV kibble at all) & she's eating it very well but I also give her the NV venisin medallions too. We seem to be doing alot better with the tearing. I think next time I need to get her some kibble I will also pick her up one of the NB rolls to try if we need to go out of town for the holidays anyone know a specific one to give a try?

| I think all PetCo's have Natural Balance.

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | You're so welcome Kyle! I would suggest giving some a try! I'm not trying to push the food on you or anything...I don't work for NB or anything like that, LOL! I just happen to think it's a great food and we've had excellent results with it - so I always recommend it to my FRIENDS

| Good to know. Do they have all the varieties? I think I'm going to try the Sweet Potato and Fish version. Thank you!

| Okay everyone... I know this was probably mentioned, but I'm far too lazy to look through all the posts... which NB are good for allergies... I think Chip is allergic to something in the Ultra Premium variety. And a possibly dumb question... I know you shouldn't change brands suddenly, but what about formulas?

| It will say on the package if it is an allergy formula. I use NB Potato & Duck & it has helped with the tearing and scratching. When I get lazy ( Because I have to go out of town to buy the NB ) & give something else the problems come back. |

Potato and Duck Sweet Potato and Fish Sweet Potato and Venison Now on your last question, I honestly can't say for sure what is right and what is wrong, cause I'm actually not too sure myself, LOL....but I CAN tell you that I DID NOT gradually give my babies a new NB formula - I just gave it to them one day and they did totally fine with it. No upset tummies, no loose and/or runny stools - nada They did perfectly fine when they were immediately given another flavor/formula.
