April, Redmoom is not available in my area, unfortunately . I know I can order it online, but I want to get a small bag to start with, to see how she does. I think I’m going to go with a grain inclusive kibble, only because the protein content tends to be lower, in general. I just hate the thought of feeding rice due to the aresenic found in it, brown and white alike, so I’m hoping to find a kibble with another grain, such as quinoa or barley. Is Hound Dog Mom still here?

Sippmanir, Thank you for the link, but I already have seen it and that is what prompted me to switch to Wellness Core Puppy, but now I’m faced with an issue that, according to the vet, is requiring me to feed a low calcium AND low protein food. I’m just not sure what to feed because most foods have protein content of 30% or more, even the all life stages food. Earthborn Meadow Feast states no less than 26% protein , but what does that really mean? To me it means that it it is likely higher than 26%.

Another thing I find confusing is the protein content in the raw foods. For example, under the food analyisis of Primal Raw frozen, it gives a dried protein content of 47% and a protein content of 15%. What do I go by? I don’t know how to interpret that.

Sorry for all the questions, but I just want to get my dog kn the best food possible ASAP.

Jumping back to my post, Koa was on Taste of the Wild puppy kibble prior to switching to Wellness Core Puppy.

She has been on Wellness Core Puppy for over a month. She also gets some tripe.

Hound Dog mom, I just had xrays done on my 5 month old German Shepherd puppy beccause she was favoring her left hind leg on occasion. She has panosteitis. I have been feeding Wellness Core Puppy. The vet said I need to feed her a lower protein food, something 25% or less. What do you suggest for possible options. I prefer grain free and raw is ok too.

I’m sure this has been addressed, but are there any freeze dried raw foods that are ok for large breed puppies? My trainer has recommended Stella and Chewys Lamb dinner “cakes” for training purposes because they are healthy, nutritionally balanced, very tasty and easy to break apart for small treats and the pups love them. Does anyone know the calcium content?
