Adopted a stray puppy. Currently around 8-9 months; somewhere between 16-18kg.
At first I started with Pedigree - hair loss, that was an innocent enough mistake when I learned from the pet store to never feed any food I can get from the supermarket.
Switched to Bil-Jac for puppies. No more hair loss, puppy seems to like the food but my issue with the feed is that there seems to be a lot of it wasted as the feed easily crumbles to form powders.
Switched to NutriEdge - regular one for all stages, Chicken meat. Okay. Pet store says it's the best available. Couldn't find any info about it on the internet so I just went ahead despite it being much more expensive than the previous brand. Dog seems to like it, no problem until I think my dog go bored with this brand.
Then there was a promotion for a new range of feed also from NutriEdge - Salmon & grain free. I bought a total of 21kg of the feed. I notice my dog were not so actively feeding. In the past, she'd eat every time I pour feed into the bowl but lately she's just been not wanting to eat. She does eat if I feed her by hand but I don't usually do that unless the feed has been left for more than 6 hours.
I also notice that my dog has been shedding a lot lately this past month. I don't think the feed is causing this problem, perhaps it just coincidentally overlapped with my dog's shedding season.
I feed my stray dog with human's food(- salt), no hair lost as I give her some sugar every 4 days.At first I started with Pedigree - hair loss, that was an innocent enough mistake when I learned from the pet store to never feed any food I can get from the supermarket.
