October 27, 2014 at 11:19 am in reply to: Wet Food for Giant Breed Puppy (Great Dane)? #55719 Report AbuseLance BMemberThanks for the post.
Do you have any idea how much/often you feed it to your pup?
October 24, 2014 at 11:23 pm in reply to: Ingredient in Nutrisource Large Breed Puppy Food causing diarrhea? #55537 Report AbuseLance BMemberWell, his stool returned to diarrhea throughout the rest of today, so I decided to make the switch.
I opted for “Great Life Rx Grain- Free: Buffalo”. Even better quality and comparable price. Depending on the kibble size, it may actually last longer than the Nutrisource given that Nutrisource requires about twice the amount of cups.
October 24, 2014 at 3:37 pm in reply to: Ingredient in Nutrisource Large Breed Puppy Food causing diarrhea? #55495 Report AbuseLance BMemberYeah, I have seen HDM’s list and used it when making my decision on NutriSource. The optimum dietary matrix for giant-breed dogs, according to research, is 26% fat, 14% protein, 0.8% Calcium, and 0.67% Phosphorus. Nutrisource is 26% fat, 14% protein, 1.0% Calcium, and 0.8% Phosphorus, which is obviously incredibly close.
In comparison to all the others on the list, it was the “best” in terms of the above criteria. Moreover, its price is great, ESPECIALLY in comparison to the rest of HDM’s list.
I was unsure if it was the food or the vaccinations/dewormer, but it looks like it’s the food. Then again, I don’t recall diarrhea the first week we had him (which preceded his shots; and, for what it’s worth, he was weaned onto the Nutrisource food). His stool was good today, though.
Perhaps he was having osmotic diarrhea from excess water consumption? I had been adding water to his food to make sure he was consuming enough.
I didn’t add water to his food today, though, and his stool was normal. I think I’m going to go through the weekend and see if he can consistently produce regular stool. If it continues being loose, I’ll switch to something else.

Lance BMemberThanks for your insight, c4c.
Regarding your question, yes, I checked out that thread and did additional research beyond what HDM provided in her thread. Ultimately, I decided to get Nutrisource Large Breed Puppy food, as it had the closest dietary matrix (relative to other kibbles) to what research recommended. Moreover, its calcium to phosphorus ratio was pretty ideal and close to the research optimum. Lastly, it’s very affordable, which was a very nice added bonus.
Lance BMemberPerhaps a probiotic? If so, which brand/product seems to be the DFA consensus?
Lance BMemberYup, I was aware of the last update.
Just providing the feedback the site creator asked for in the making of this forum…
