It took us a long time to find a food that would stay down and finally this one worked. She doesn't get any treats. She has a very sensitive tummy.

I feed mine California Natural Puppy Dry - chic flavor and the same brand a tsp or 2 of the wet. She's doing great on it at 6mos old.

I had trouble with my yorkie having runny eyes and sneezing a lot when I got him and he got doggy colitis shortly after I got him. (I took him to the vet because he wouldn't eat). I then started feeding him my sister-in-laws homemade dog food. It contains rice, boiled chicken, roasted lamb, squash and flaxseed oil. The vet says it's a very good diet for him and he has been in perfect health since I started feeding this. Not to mention, he gets so excited now at feeding time. HE LOVES IT! I have to buy in bulk so I only have to make the trip once a month to get food. She makes it in quart sizes and he eats about 4 quarts per month with some dry food mixed in. I highly recommend homemake food. It's healthy, no spices or preservatives and the dog thinks he is getting people food. Maybe you could find some recipe to make your own or find someone who makes it near you.

Bonnie gets NV raw. We are back to chicken now. We have had the beef, lamb, and venison. She loves them all.

I have switched Harley to Acana Prairie Harvest and he loves it! I did free feed but once we made the switch I have to start splitting up his meals because he would eat everything in the bowl as soon as I put it down!

Snickers ate NV Raw medallions for months along side Evo Small Bites kibble. He recently has rebeled against all of it.

Now we are slowly transitioning him to Primal raw and Acana kibble.

Hi Viv,

I hope Niyah doesn't rebel against NV Raw because then I would be at a loss as to what to feed her. Have you tried different varieties to see if she would like a different flavor?

How different is Primal raw than NV?

Thanks

George is fed raw and 2 different dog kibble (one is for puppies so slowly weening him off)

Polo eats Orijen Adult Kibble with a mix of Acana Pacifica
he loves it gobbles it down everytime
and next time he is going to Try Acana Grasslands made with Lamb

I am in the UK so don't know if you get Burns in the UK.

But I feed Teddy Burns Chicken & Brown Rice, it is fantastic.

Hello!!!!

Snick has tried all the varieties of NV expcept the Rabbit which is outsourced from China. He was put on meds twice while being on NV and I think he associates his NV with being sick and medication so won't eat it anymore.

Primal is not very different at all, different packaging and looks and different mixtures within their "nugget" as opposed to NV's "medallion."

So good so far with Primal
