| Anyone feeding Evo?? Hello all, I just got a sample of EVO and Sophie seemed to like it, but I don't know how much a 5.8 lb Yorkie needs to have a day since the sample doesn't have that info on it. She's currently eating NV raw and it starting to get bored with it. Plus I'd love to get her moved over to dry just due to the hassle of the raw. Thanks, Debra |

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | Lots of people here feed EVO. its a great food if it agrees with your dog. Some have problems with the protein or fat content and you'll notice this if your dog starts vomiting it up a few days later, like mine . sometimes foods just don't agree. i'm not sure what the feeding guidelines are. hopefully someone here has a bag and can tell you

| I used to feed Evo to Charlie and Chloe, and it worked great for Charlie, but Chloe started having the runs..I took her to the vet and they said it had too high of protein content for her small weight cause its for very active dogs, so we switched them both off of it. BUt I guess as long as your dog isnt having problems (loose stool or vomiting) then go for it!

| I feed Evo small bites to my 17 week old puppy, she seems to like it. According to the bag 3-10 pds in weight per day total 6-11 weeks 1-2 1/4 cups 3-4 months 1-2 cups 5-7 months 1/2-1 1/4 8-12 months 1/2-1 Adult 1/2-3/4 Eva weights 3 pounds and actually eats 1/4 cup a day, and eats Dick Van Pattens Food roll in the evening for a treat (just a small amount) Apparently this food goes a long way and you don't need to feed too much because of its contents.

| Lexi is 7 mos, just spayed and 5.8 lbs also! I feed her twice a day, 1Tbl wellness canned puppy(which I am weaning her off), followed by 1/4 cup EVO. She may or may not eat the whole 1/4 cup. She poops twice a day morning and early evening. So far it has been a very good food for her and she was a very picky eater! |

| We feed Evo (both chicken and red meat small bites) in conjunction to NV Raw Medallions and we absolutely love it. I was second guessing myself with the high protein a just recently but I don't know why, my Snickers is doing beautifully. If you do use this food, BE SURE to monitor your pup for any signs that she is not agreeing with the food. When we started Snick on it, he had large, scary poops!! But he enoyed eating so I waited it out and sure enough a week later, they were small and compact!!
