@keeganner Hills is wsava compliant and they make a pollock and insect protein food for sensitive dogs Have you tried purina pro plan sensitive in the salmon or lamb formulas? Sometimes the simplest answer ends up being what works. Wsava brands may have some of the ingredients you don’t like...

@eilightened Yeah using kibble as treats does help especially because with puppies you’re using so many treats initially for training. Also if they have sensitive stomachs not using other items as treats means you’re less likely to irritate their tummies. I once heard a trainer say “take your...

@eilightened This might be hard to hear but we are the ones who make our dogs picky. The reality is that dogs will not starve themselves but in our hearts we feel bad if they don’t eat so we change stuff to try and get them to eat. As long as they’re generally healthy it might be worth doing...

@eilightened Definitely try the pro plan sensitive skin and stomach. I have a bully mix. They’re absolutely terrible for stomach issues. When my girl was little I fed blue buffalo because I tried a million things and like you it was the only thing that didn’t give her the squirts lol.. that...

@eilightened WSAVA compliant are purina, iams, hills, science diet, royal canin and eukanuba Have you tried the sensitive skin and stomach pro plan? My girls get 1-2 tablespoons of canned food mixed with hot water on their kibble for one of their daily meals as a treat it makes like a meaty...

@nbg13 Good luck! I remember the tummy upset days and they’re super stressful I hope it works for your baby

@nbg13 The SSS has additional ingredients to help with sensitive stomachs like probiotics etc Might be worth a shot to try it and see if it helps it may not be the actual protein content of the food that’s causing the issues… other WSAVA compliant brands will also have sensitive formulas as...

@eilightened If you’re feeding them WSAVA compliant diet for their kibble and only using this as a topper it should be fine. Keep in mind that only 10% of their calories should come from toppers and/or treats. As long as 90% of their caloric intake is coming from a balanced WSAVA compliant puppy...

@nbg13 Have you tried the purina pro plan sensitive skin and stomach? Bullies (and mixes) have notoriously sensitive stomachs and skin. They make a salmon and rice formula and a lamb and oat formula if you’re avoiding chicken. I used to use it with my bully mix but have transitioned her to the...

@livinnlovin Purina one is a high quality WSAVA compliant diet that’s also budget friendly. The small breed version comes in smaller bags, however corgis can border on medium size. They have their standard adult food (and other variations like sensitive stomach etc) that come in bigger bags...

@ebonue Yeah my 2 year old is currently on a weight loss plan. Unfortunately she had a false pregnancy (we also are delaying spay she will get done as soon as I get her back to normal, her heat started 3 days before her scheduled spay) compounded by the loss of her older sister, who was a senior...

@ebonue If your dogs don’t have any specific health concerns you can try purina one… same science backed ingredients and high quality food just not as many options for special food needs. For example the purina one has 1 type of sensitive skin and stomach where as pro plan has many options for...

@cjdmom When my senior girl passed a month ago I wanted to wait 6-12 months and focus on my 2 year old dog for a while. 2 weeks later the opportunity came up to get a puppy that was seemingly a good fit for me, I decided to meet her. I went with it in my head that I wasn’t really ready but once...

@melouise The way I’ve always gotten pups to be ok alone is to work up to it and take baby straps. Each pup is different and you’ll have to figure out how fast he can manage but it starts very small. First of all is he ok in his crate when you’re home? If not then get the basics of crate...

@ayopaul What are you doing for training treats? I use unconventional treats a lot of the times, veggies, fruits even baby food pouches lol I find that they don’t fill them up as much as higher value treats. For high value I use purebites pouches specifically the digestion ones. They’re like...

@ayopaul I really hope it works for you. I remember the stress of just trying to get my girl to eat. There were days I wanted to cry and beg her to eat as if that would work so anything I can suggest if it works for someone else then even better! My girls are on PPPSSS and PPP large breed puppy...

@ayopaul Have you tried soaking the kibble in broth? I wouldn’t do bone broth because it would be higher in fat but maybe making a broth out of turkey breast or other very lean meat and skimming the surface fat? When I previously had a dog who had pancreatitis (which honestly her symptoms were...
