    Hello & Hi Pitlove, thanks for informing me to this forum….

    What is this Tripett I keep reading about?

    I’m feeding my 8 month old Golden Retriever NB (natural balance, grain free)
    I also keep hearing about the calcium and calorie count and what is good for them. I am a new dog owner, so I’m not sure about some things. I want a food that is healthy for her. I know staying fit is key, she doesn’t get much “running time” so she is a tab bit overweight, but I am working on that. The Vet doesn’t seem much help as he can never really give me a straight answer on the calorie/calcium part. The food I’m feeding her says to give 7 1/2 to 9 1/2 cups per day, to me that seems a lot since she doesn’t get much exercise, so I give her 1 1/2 to 2 cups twice a day.
