last time a vet also recommend me royal canin vet choice, but the price is 

end up i din buy.
For picky dogs lah, lamb cannot lah, coz the smell not that strong(told by my groomer).
mayb u can try fish or other meat based.
BW fish, acana fish, regal venison, regal sensi-bite, eaglepack duck.

Only the eaglepack is expensive, others ok.

hello,yesterday i bought canidae lamb and rice for ben and roxy.unfortunately,i couldnt go to the shop i usually go to coz they were closed.but both of them love canidae.only bought small packet for them to try.later will get eagle pack for them....

thinking of my silky going to adult soon, i need to do some survey for her kibbles...my house got 2 dogs (the silky and shih-tzu mix poodle)
any suggestions?? i'm thinking of want to feed her the kibbles that suitable for aging dog(the mix) cause i don't want them steal each other food...

hi guys,i am now feeding my dogs proformance lamb and rice.unfortunately,they dislike canidae.and from what i've heard from other forums,canidae has outsource their supply to Diamonds to produce for them as well.so the quality may be affected lor. my dogs don't like it so i change to proformance and i'll stick to it since they loved it a lot..

Hi there elsie can iknow which acana r u feeding ur dog ? well is ur dog caged or free run ? got enuff of water to drink ? Sometimes it might be due to the weather n also the environment n u must understand that when u give ur dog a high end food make sure that u have enuff water fo them to drink ...well its good u r feeding ur dog with orijen cos its a very high end petfood....

hey there,js wanna say something.regardless high or low end food,they need lots of water.now the weather is so hot,they tend to get thirsty.my ben keeps drinking water every 2 hours even not on food.dry food is pretty dry and can be heaty as well.so providing clean water will ensure them to be healthy too.

Oh no, my dog will have kibbles every meal. Those homecook food is add in. By the way, does any one knows where can i buy California Natural kibbles in KL?

hihi.. can i ask izit okie to feed my poodle puppy orijen? when i tell the shop owner, she say orijen will change my poodle to a giant poodle >.< she say i shud just feed 10 kibbles per meal so it wun be oversize izit true? 

No...your toy poddle won't change to giant poddle! The worst is just a fat poddle. The size is fixed in the gene, not fixed by food.

You have the measuring cup that's for dog food? I got the cup from the breeder when I got my puppy at 2 mths too and he asked me to feed 25g, 2 times a day. But mine is a chow chow la. Never heard of pet university. Do know more, you can go to www.dogfoodanalysis.com.

By the way, anyone of you notice our local vet only selling those brand like Science Diet, Eukanuba, Bil-Jac, IAMS? I wonder why they never recommend us some premium kibbles. Could be they don't wish our dogs to be healthy so they can have more business? My colleague's vet recommend her Eukanuba for her MS .

Any problem with chicken fat???

I belive it is not they thought it is "premium" food.  I seldom come across vets that endorses specific pet food. They are not nutritionist, they are "doctors", for pet. Some might reccomend if found that certain brand is doing good to their pups or client's pup. But it might not work out for all.

Anyway, It is also the way market accepts it. Not all people willing to go the real premium way (not the "premium" that most self proclaimed premium, super premium, hollistic, super hollistic brands say they are). Some might even say that they dont need such quality food.

What we can do is visit shops that caters to our needs. Even so, some "high end" shops still carry some lower range variety to diversify their market. Shops can sell anything as long there are customers for it. We can do our homework, choose what we (or rather, our pup's) need, and consume based on requirements. But do remember, at the end of days, the best brand might still not work out. It is based on your pup's acceptance in many ways.

Most kibbles include fat as its ingredient while a handful of them does not. And our pups still need certain proportion of it. It is already good if it can be identified as "chicken" fat (naturally preserved).

By the way, there are alot of other factors in our pups food that contribute to problems mentioned, not only fat in it.

My point of view though. Hope more of us can share on this point so can learn more.

YES, agree jarjar. It make no sense that the vets can't read the ingredients and they should know how good OR BAD are the ingredients for our pets.

If your vets are recommending Science Plan and you tell them about Addiction, Natural Balance or Orijen, and they say "I never heard about these brands" or "only Science Plan is good, any other brand are rubbish" or anything like that, then I would say this vet is simply ignorance to do more research or just care about their wallet.

But of corse, not all vets are like that, many are good and doing great jobs.

Snowy to try..as bebe was on barf diet de..

Snowy dnt like it much.. too hard, she cant chew. Even for bebe she oso ned to put some efford to chew... hmmm
