Ok SERIOUSLY, I need HELP!! ASAP!!

What I would do is make some white rice and either boil or broil plain chicken breast. Then cut up the chicken (after removing fat, skin and bones) and mix it in with the rice.

My vets recommend boiled chicken with white rice when dogs have tummy problems or loose stool. So this combo shouldn't give your baby any bad reactions until their new food arrives. Plus, this would be homecooked ... so you wouldn't have to worry about feeding your babies anything that is possibly on the recall list.

Ahh - we got it! Hubby called just as I was typing out my last reply and said that he talked to the lady and she gave him the name of the place here in town that carries the Innova YAY! So now I will have a backup if for some reason they refuse the Canidae, which I hope they don't because I spent quite a bit on it - but if they do, I'll definitely try that next! I just hope they like this food...I HATE having to switch their foods all the time

Have you used their store locater to see if there is a store near you that carries Canidae? That's what I did and I found it at an out of the way store only 20 miles from home. What a FANTASTIC find for me.

Anyway, here's my problem. My babies are almost done with their bag of Chicken Soup (we've had it for quite a while since it takes them so long to finish an entire bag of food) so recently, I went and bought a new bag of Chicken Soup. Well, I haven't opened it yet and I WON'T be opening it. I am taking it back to the store and getting a refund. I am going to order them a bag of Canidae online, however...it will take a few days to get here so what in the HECK do I feed them in the meantime as they are nearly out of the Chicken Soup??? I seriously do not know what to do.

It has to be something that I can get locally (just a small bag) until the Canidae arrives (no one here sells Canidae so I HAD to order it..) just to hold us over for a few days. But WHAT do I buy??? Just about everything has been recalled!! I was going to go buy a small bag of Blue Buffalo just to hold us over for a few days, but now I see that THAT has been recalled too ERRRR! This is so frustrating and I don't know what to feed my babies

Is there ANYTING at Petsmart that hasn't been recalled??? It doesn't even have to be the BEST food since I only need it for a few days. Just SOMETHING...ANYTHING that hasn't been recalled so that my babies don't starve until the Canidae gets here as they are nearly OUT of Chicken Soup.

HELP!!!

I hear ya! I am feeding the honestkitchen.com and home-cook. I will NEVER go back to commercial pet food

[Gingergirlsmom]

Oh no! This recall business is a mess.

Why don't you cook up some chicken/rice for the next couple of days. You can add some cooked veggies if you want. They'll love it and since you'll be using human grade food you don't need to worry!

HELP!!!

the only blue buffalo that affects dogs that has been recalled is the health bars. The dry is still ok to feed. IMO I'm not going to give it to ramsey just because I don't want to take a chance of it being recalled.
He is eating Chicken and rice tonight until I can figure out what to do next.

I think they have Wellness at petsmart, I wanted the Canidae but they have to order it around here, so I went with the Wellness and they are all now finally eating it, Canidae is alittle bit cheaper but I hate to change them again...Good luck Brooke, if you need me to I will express mail you some Wellness, just let me know....

[Kaluiah]

I believe there is a natural pet store around here that sells Canidae, I will look into it and maybe switch Ramsey to it..

[Gizmo's Mom]

Gizmo eats the Chicken Soup Adult. I didn't see it listed on their site, should I take the chance?

[mizzwanned]

California Natural Lamb and Rice is great. That is what mine eat and home cooked food here and there

[shireyak]

Royal Canine Yorkshire Terrier 28 is the ONLY dry food my furbabies eat. We supplement with fresh raw baby carrots, cooked green beans, peas, just about any cooked vegetable that isn't gassy for snacks (and veggies are also low in calories), one of my babies has allergies and this is the only food out there that helps with his allergies (he won't touch lamb and rice) .

I know it is very expensive, but well worth the money and is available at Pet Smart.

Occasionaly they do get a few bites of roasted/baked/broiled chicken if we are having it, but I do try to stay away from giving them beef due to allergies and calories

What made you decide on Canidae? I feed my yorkie Natural Balance ultra premium canned & dry & he loves it (he's been on it 2 years). The venison "flavor" has been recalled, but so far (knock wood) none of the other "flavors"--

[ashley809]

Mine LOVE Bil Jac. My obedience trainer uses this brand only.

[biewerlover]

Oh geeze, I missed that the canned food for Chicken soup has been on a recall list now? I have one can that I just purchased but haven't opened yet, I also feed the dry Chix Soup...geeze, now what...I don't get what is going on?

I personally (and I think that is what the OP said too) am not comfortable feeding ANY brand that has had ANY of its food recalled. I am so sick of this whole thing.

I started feeding mine Canidae and Merrick only now. The only wet I feed is Merrick. I mix a 5lb bag of canidae and a 5lb bag of a Merrick flavor.

Good luck to us all with our pets. This is so out of hand. I had not even heard that the Chicken Soup had been recalled. How HORRIBLE.
