Switching Dog Foods, Any suggestions?

Thadaboykobe · 08-19-2005, 04:12 PM

Hello.

Okay, I am going to be switching Kobe from IAMS to... I am not sure. Are there any suggestions on what type of dog food would be good for him since I think he doesnt like his dog food too much and is getting upset tummys because of his resent food.. I was thinking of Science Diet because the vets here sell Science Diet. Suggestions are welcome.

Thank you!

Science Diet isn't a real good food to be feeding either, there is a link on this site that has a lot of good foods listed, obviously not all but a good cross section of what is available. Check it out before you buy the Science Diet, and remember to switch over slowly over a week to prevent more tummy upsets. Your vet is selling that food because he makes a nice profit from the company by selling it.

Why thank you.

Yeah, I just know that IAMS isn't helping him out on his tummy aches and he really isnt fond of it. I'll check out that link.

Can you guys get Naturediet over there? if so you may want to try him on that. it isnt a dry food though its meat but it has all kinds of great things in it for them and the main ingredient is MEAT not corn. If you can get it try it, you may find it will help his tummy out!
