Viv RParticipant
I would say the chicken meal or salmon recipes. A few of the recipes have quite a few legumes in them, which increases the protein content of the food, but is controversial. I feed one dog Dr. Harveyās Canine health mix (you have to prepare it and add protein and fat), and the other gets Open Farm with chicken breast as a topper. Sounds like your brand has some good ingredients, and locally made! Good on you!
May 2, 2021 at 5:18 pm in reply to: Gulping Attacks with Excessive Licking – SOLUTION! #168767 Report AbuseViv RParticipantMedication and probiotics didnāt work for us and we tried that for about a month, but hereās what did work for our pit-husky mix:
1. Feed 3-4 small meals a day, and no fatty or rich foods or table foods. We started with 4 per day, and by day 4 we went to 3 a day.
2. Feed a lower fat lower protein dog food that is Not grain free. I have slowly stopped trusting dog food manufacturers who donāt publish the origin of their ingredients and feed Natureās logic, Open Farm, and Honest kitchen, so I didnāt think I could improve here. But she is our picky dog, and we were adding chicken breasts or thighs with skin (ugh) to her food. Without the addition of chicken, she didnāt want to eat. The pet food store suggested Dr. Harveyās canine health mix as an alternative to Honest kitchenās mix. This is a mix that requires you to add muscle meat, organ meat (for taurine), and a healthy oil- I use olive oil or krill oil. For protein, I add skinless chicken breast (and a small portion of ground turkey liver, hearts and gizzards). I follow their recipe for low protein, which amounts to about 1.5 grams of protein for each pound that my dog weighs, which doesnāt sound low protein to me. She LOVES it, but most of all, her GERD, acid reflux, gulping, and burping up water is under control. I buy frozen boneless, skinless chicken breasts at Costco ($1.77 per pound), and do a big meal prep once a week, freezing half. Itās expensive, but cheaper than the vet.
Itās been about 6 months, and weāve been able to slowly go back to 2 meals a day, but 3 is probably better. She had an episode a few days ago after I fed her too many Ziwi peak treats, but other than that, sheās good! -
