| Scared of feeding Natural Balance after reading complaints. Suggestions? I was reading someone elses posts about negative reviews of Natural Balance and how everyones dogs and cats are getting deathly sick from it. My dog is on this food and I thought she was doing better then she was before I started this. She still has a once a week small amount of blood at the end of her stool. Now Im scared to keep her on this since Ive read all the complaints. Any suggestions on a good grain and potato free food. She is on NB fish and sweet potato grain free food which has improved her bowel moments and I think has stopped her vomiting. But would like to get her on a different brand food with similiar ingredients. |

| They think she has inflammatory bowel disease. Do you know if any of those are hypoallergenic and grain free? Thanks |

| Hi there, have you checked out Nature's Variety.Product Choices for My Dog or Cat | Nature's Variety Just started Sheldon on this food, It is tone of the few foods I found that is grain free with no potatoes. We are doing the limited ingredient. Back to basics,http://www.backtobasicspetfood.com/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=potato% 20free%20dog%20food&utm_content={K_CREATIVE_HEADLI NE}&utm_campaign=B2B%20General Rubicon Rubicon Grain & Potato Free Dog Food Natural Balance was my choice before this whole ordeal with Diamond and the bad reviews. Several people here feed the Nature's Variety raw. Good luck! |

| I know FROMM and Honest Kitchen have never had any recalls. My crew will be all on both once Lucy and Cozy drop a few pounds. Buddy and Roxy are on it now and doing great. Roxy isn't even a big kibble eater normal but she runs to her bowl down. Kibble in AM and Honest Kitchen in PM.

| Is IBD the same as IBS?? If it is I would talk to my vet before changing the food. Rosie has IBS and any food change really puts her through it.
