Adopting an abused 2 year old Shih Tzu has been an interesting experience for our family over the past few months. We started Aggie out on Trader Joe's kibble, believing this to be an acceptable, more natural product for both our dogs. Aggie could never digest the TJ's product, so I began researching what doggie naturalists were feeding their dogs. And, it looked like the raw meat diet was the way to go and definitely no grains. This went great for about a month untill we got a bad batch of premade raw dog food (super expensive @ $60/week) and had terrible projectile poo and throwup for 3 days each! So, I said, forget this.. not worth it. Next, my research brought me to Acana/Orijen Brand(s). I still feel this is probably the highest quality kibble out there, but after 4 weeks of runny poo on this brand, I realized my little shih tzu just couldn't handle such rich food. My other dog, a chow chow did fine on it but didn't really care for the flavor all that much. The quest for answers continued until I came accross information on Dick Van Patten's web site for his dog food line: Natural Balance. I didn't realize that some dogs can be allergic to meat. For example, chicken is in nearly all dog food, and after a couple of generations (just like soy and wheat with humans), dogs are becoming sensative to chicken as an ingredient. The VERY FIRST DAY I put Aggie on their Duck and Potato Formula (grain free too I love that!), her poos hardened up and no more bile throw up in the morning. She's been on it now for 10 days, and it has been a wonderful experience changing all our lives. Though I have to say she doesn't run to the food, but she eats it when she is hungry. Now, our other dog, our Chow Chow begs for it. I've begun mixing the Orijen kibble with the NB canned, and she eats her entire meal right up. I will be transitioning my chow to NB as soon as her remaining Orijen is consumed. Love, Love, Love this product.
