I feed Charley & Meldoy on Burns dry food it is approved by the BUAV so is not tested on animals. I noticed a couple of you feed Royal canin Charley was on this when I first got him but changed to Burns due to their animal testing. Iam's is one of the worst companies for animal testing please see the link and weep :( :mad: :mad: http://www.iamscruelty.com/ Sharon,Charley & Melody xx |
I finally found a dry food that Gucci will eat, Nutro Lamb and Rice kibbles, I tried the Innova evo she liked it for awhile but then i read the posts about the high protein level so I weaned her off. She eats the nutro daily , at night I give her some chicken mixed with rice and carrots, I alternate sometimes with a little wet food. I do give her treats twice a day or more. she is spoiled... I give her boars head honey roasted turkey as a treat on occassion she loves it. Banana and cottage cheese.. Hope this helps.. Gina |
Hello. I feed my yorkie Pedigree Puppy Chow. Very very very little pet food also. I am going to look in Innova as well. |
Solid Gold Wee Bits and sometimes Innova (not Evo) wet. I free feed the Wee Bits and sometimes he gets toddler (human) chicken sticks about every other day. Rowdy is VERY picky and very thin, so I have to work to get him to eat much of anything |
I have tried Innova Evo for the last three days. He likes it but for some reason he doesn't chew it. He just swallows the kibbles. He used to chew his Eukanuba. I have felt the kibble and they are much harder than the Eukanuba so I tend to mix it some water...but no luck! My boy has a very sensitive tummy and is a picky eater...any suggestions (dry food only)? |
1 Attachment(s) The breeder we got 12 week old Brie from gives all her dogs, adult and puppy, Royal Canin, which comes in different varieties. She lets the puppies eat as they please and that is what we have done for Brie, who has been with us 3 days so far. Reviewing the ingredients it seems to be pretty good and we just give it to her dry. The first couple of days home she did not each much but today was a real chowhound. Royal Canin makes a variety specifically for Yorkies. |

What i feed my Yorkies Bogey and Gabe get a mixture of dry Merrick's Puppy Plate, Merrick's Grammy's Pot Pie and Canidae for breakfast and lunch. The dry food is kept down and refreshed all day and evening. For dinner they get some sort of Merrick's wet food - Puppy Plate or Grammy's Pot Pie along with rice I have cooked for them. The rice is cooked in equal parts of water and fat free chicken broth. They occasionally get a couple of pieces of fat free popcorn and sometimes a few bits of American cheese. For treats they get Recipe treats broken in half. |
Cleo & Ceasar... Our Cleo & Ceasar, now both 16 months old eat NATURAL BALANCE Organic Formula Kibbles mixed with a teaspoon of Natural Balance wet/canned food, their favorite is the Duck & Potato , twice a day...at 7:00 am and at 7:00 pm. And now we are giving them Grizzly Bear Salmon Oil. We've been having a probem with Cleo, our girl, she has a very cottony coat, and they are breaking everytime I would brush her even with leave-in conditioner. So somene from here suggested I try Grizzly. So hopefully this would work for her. They both love the flavor. So my husband and I are keeping our fingers crossed... ;) |

chicken, duck, pork, barley, oats, soy, eggs, milk, and peas. we feed him and he's sister lola, miniature schnauzer, natural balance venison and brown rice. they eat the dry food. i was trying to spoil them with mixing it with wet food same kind but noticed that it was giving him gas. no wet food- no gas- and luckily no diarrhea so far. for snacks, pro-treat beef liver cubes, pro plan adult beef biscuits, petsmart shark cartilage biscuits and a daily dose of ester c vitamin to boost their immune system. hope this helps. |
I just read the link to boycotting IAMS, YUCK. I always knew that Iams food was no good for my dogs, hence, I never fed them any, THANK GOD!!! From now on, I will let all my friends and fellow pet lovers know about this awful company in hopes that they will boycott them too. My babies in Canada eat Eukanuba and the one here with me eats Science Diet. I don't see any of you eating Science Diet? Is it because it's no good? |
I would recommend for dry food or wet food to go with either Canidae or Innova. I currently feed mine Innova EVO which are smaller bites that the regular Innova Puppy. My dogs wouldn't eat it at first, so I wet it with water and sprinkled a little bit of cheese and they took it fine. I don't feed Iams, Eukanuba, Science Diet and all those commercial products only because well Iams/Eukanuba is definately a no-no for their cruel animal testing.. and the other products i wouldn't feed because all the fillers and junk in it. if you want to read more on food and picking the right one for you.. visit my friends website, you can ask her any question you'd like. www.mordanna.com/dogfood and if you'd like to find where Innova can be purchased near you visit: www.naturapet.com |
I feed Merrick's puppy plate, after trying so many foods, a pickey eater, loves the dry. I find tummy sensitive to the wet. I do give a Gerber's chicken stick as a trick but just a half of one every three days. Also loves the lamb lung as a chew treat. They sound disgusting but look alright. The local shelter appreciates all the rejects. I only give rice and boiled chicken when upset stomach. |

Diet I feed Chloe' Nutro Ultra Holistic Nutrition for puppies and the line goes up from there...I've heard that putting them on a holistic diet can be good for sensitive tummy's....the kibbles are about the size of a rice grain so it's easy for her to eat. ~Tracy |
I feed Corey & Carly Royal Canin "Yorkshire Terrier". They love it, their coat is so shiny. |

I think a lot of people tend to shy away from Science Diet because most of their formulas contain a lot of corn, which is a common allergen for dogs. My vet pushes it, but I have a feeling they get some kind of deal/kickback for selling it! :rolleyes: |
I Feed my Tiger mostly Innova Puppy Food. These past week, he seemed tired of the same old food so I kinda made it "gourmet" by adding Nature's choice training treats and Bil-Jack Liver treats cut up into small bites and mixing them all up. That seemed to do the trick so now he is eating it all again. I also feed him Innova Health Bars, occassionaly plain carrots, and if I want some peace and quiet, I give him a smoked tendon (not smelly at all and very inexpensive so highly recommend it). I just got the Innova EVO sample pack so I will give start giving that as treats for now. He will eventually switch to this once he is about 8 months old. |

Baby eats wet and dry Chicken Soup and dry Royal Canin. :D I've tried others like Nutro, and she doesn't like it as much as CS. |
Both my babies eat Chicken Soup wet mixed with a bit of the dry. It's the only thing that I've been able to get them both to eat consistently. For treats, they get a bit of cottage cheese once in a while. I've made satin balls (which they fight over). They really like those roasted,dehydrated chicken breasts. Maybe a bit of hamburger or chicken from our left-overs. |
Nata Natalie gets Eukanuba puppy food for small breeds. She also gets Eukanuba cookies and I use doggy salmon treats for training only. She gets no human food. I always have to entice her to eat in the morning by hand feeding to get her started. She is slow to wake up and I want her to eat before I go to work. |
[QUOTE=xtine] if you want to read more on food and picking the right one for you.. visit my friends website, you can ask her any question you'd like. www.mordanna.com/dogfood QUOTE] WOW - I just went to your friends website and have bookmarked it as a favorite. I definately will spend more time cruising through all the information. A lot of good information..thanks for sharing :thumbup: |

Thanks for that! I checked and compared it to the wet Chicken Soup and the only thing that I could find in CS was Egg Product. That's okay in my book! :p |
Zeke's food We've tried quite a few foods for Zeke. The breeder sent us home with Eukanuba, which he will not eat! We then tried Nutro Ultra Holistic, Artemis, Flint River Ranch, Canidae, and Chicken Soup for the Dog Lover's Soul. We have decided on a 1/2 and 1/2 mixture of Nutro Ultra Holistic and Chicken Soup as this is what Zeke seems to like best. This combo gives him a good variety, he has nice, regular stools (sorry to be gross), pleasant breath, and a nice, shiny coat. The Flint River Ranch was just too big for him to chew and Artemis and Canidae gave him the most God awful breath! For treats he gets these animal cracker pretzels from Petco made without sugar, chicken bites, cheese, peanut butter, Greenie bits (as a training treat mostly), a carefully supervised rawhide occasionally, and venison bites. He's a rather finicky eater and through trial and error we've found a combination that works for him! Just to put in my two cents worth on some of the issues of this thread, we do not feed Iams, Science Diet, or any department store foods. Our reasoning for this is quality ingredients. Yes, these are animals, but we want our animals to live happy, healthy lives for as long as possible. As humans, we choose to put crap into our bodies on a daily basis, but the key word is CHOOSE. Our pets don't have the opportunity to voice their choices to us, so we have to choose for them. As long as I am making a choice for my beloved pet, I will choose foods that have quality ingredients! I look at the first several ingredients of a food and choose ones that have animals meats, whole grains, and vegetables. I try to stay away from things like corn, fillers, sugar, and white flour. Honestly, our pets eat better than we do because they don't have the opportunity to make the bad choices that we make each day. It's funny really, I would die before I would allow Zeke to drink Dr. Pepper and eat McDonalds, but this is food I put in my body on a weekly basis. I only wish that I had the willpower to make the good decisions for myself that I strive to make for my pets! :p |
