[PyrNet-L] Canine Nutrition
Hi,
I'm looking for a few suggestions on brands of
kibble. My girl, Daisy, has some itchy skin and smelly ear problems that
seem to clear up when I feed her brands not containing corn, soy, beef, etc.
(ok, just about everything). Lately I have been giving her Hund 'N
Flocken, a brand she really likes. I read a posting on a brand comparison
web site where someone thought that it caused her dog to produce more
waste. Indeed, I scoop the yard at the same time everyday and it seems to
me there's a lot to scoop! I have two pyrs and I scoop an average of 6
(forgive me) "piles" a day. Is that a lot, or average for having more than
one dog? I'm concerned that if so much is coming out of the dogs, not
enough nutrients are staying in them. I have also tried feeding Daisy
"home cooked" meals but anything other than kibble leaves her with loose
bowels. I would be interested in hearing from other pyr owners who cook
for their dogs ... and also any recommendations on brands of kibble, especially
from owners of pyrs that are sensitive to corn, etc.
Thanks!
Kim
