I am so confused re: food choices. I own and care for a 4 year old Female, Mini-Labradoodle. She currently eats two servings a day of Dry food – “Chicken Soup for the Soul” Adult. She has been on this brand since I brought her home. I currently pay about $33 for a 28lbs. bag. And I always run into other owners at the Dog Park and not one has ever used; and most have never heard of this brand. I am worried that there are better foods available for my pet – hopefully in a similar price range as I am retired and income fixed. She currently weighs in at 32 pounds, seems healthy and loves to play. Looking for recommendations. Thanks so much – Nick
HELP – we switched our 9 week old lab from the PPchow to WEF dry – did it over a week or so transitioning a little more each day. Been on WEF about 3 weeks and now have diarrhea. Used pumpkin, firmed her up, mixed WEF (grain inclusive)back in – stool getting soft again – soooo I am guessing she is sensitive to this food. (Stool free of worms etc.) Any other recommendations to try – at about same cost for food? Thanks.
Hound Dog Mom: I am a new member to the forum and clearly your experience, knowledge base is impressive. My adult Daughter picked up her 8wk old female black labrador this morning. She emailed me that the puppy was being fed a Purina product and she would like to upgrade. She needs to be a little careful within her budget. The Dam is rather small for the breed and this puppy seems light for her age 13 -14 lbs. I have researched your recommendations of 4/5 star food – but don’t see many specifically for puppies. Should I extrapolate that to imply that all are suitable (calcium levels noted). She asked me if the puppy would do well on the Kirkland Salmon Nature’s Domain food, or should she try the Wellness Core series or perhaps Fromm Gold Holistic LB puppy. I advised her to stay with the current food for a few days to a week so puppy can acclimate to it’s new home without a new diet thrown in as well. Your thoughts are welcome. Thank you.
