| Canidae is a very good food. It has all natural ingredients with no fillers, artifical flavors, etc. Mine are all fed Canidae and they love it and it really does help their coats. You made a huge step up , Iams is a poor quality food so you made the right decision by switching!!

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | I just switched to canidae myself. Haven't noticed any difference in their coat or energy level, but I feel better about the ingredients.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | It's one of the best! Good for you! So many use it on here as well, and it seems to be very good for the pups.

| I'm a recent convert to Canidae as well. I give it . All four of my pups coats have changed for the better, and more shiny and manageable. (They've been eating it for almost 2 months now) So far so good, and they love it which is always a good thing

| I have recently changed from Blue Buffalo to Canidae. My question is when will i see a change in her coat? Dior's coat is wierd. Some parts are thick and coarse and other parts are silky but the ends look brittle. I am hoping the food helps in addition to using missing link plus.

| Do you guys only feed them the Dry food? or at times a mix of the wet food (Canidae) ? We bought a big bag of the dry food, but she barely eats it.... when we first got it, she loved it, considering it was something new.... but now not so much. Is the wet food not good? would I be taking a risk, because of all the recalls? |

| My crew of 7 yorkies and 1 elderly Boxer have been on Canidae All Life Stages for about 2 years now. The Yorkies coats have improved tremendously -- my Chattie who had a very dry brittle coat that broke off every time I brushed her now has a healthy shiny almost floor length coat. She also gets a couple drops of mink oil daily (taken internally) and I use Mink Sheen shampoo. Boo the Boxer has a very sensitive stomach and would throw up quite frequently, but she rarely does since she has been on the Canidae. |

| We switched Mojo from Nutro Natural Choice Lamb and Rice to Canidea Life Stages Lamb and Rice, just last week. We are still mixing it w/ his other food. At first, he seemed to have an upset tummy, but I think that is due to switching. I am also still adding the Missing Link to his food. He only does dry kibble. We also got the treats too. He is such a picky eater and has such a sensitive tummy, I hope this food works for him. Cindy: where do you get the mink oil to put on the food? I heard extra virgin olive oil and/or virgin coconut oil was good for their skin and coats too.
