Hi there,
My spaniel has been on Hills Z/D wet food for more or less 11 years now. It has been the only dog food he has been able to tolerate. Other foods with hydrolzed protein have also been no good (such as the Royal Canin one).
He doesn't tolerate any dry foods. The ones the vet has recommended me I have already tried previously and he couldn't tolerate them.
However Hills recently changed the recipe of that particular food, and now he doesn't tolerate it well at all. He drinks a lot after eating and gets tummy churning noises a few hours later and goes very quiet and drowsy. I can tell he's having digestive discomfort.
What I've got him on at the moment is an alternation between Hills Z/D, a very healthy Austrian hypoallergenic food made from Insect protein, and I alternate that with meals made up of white fish and carrots. If I stop alternating and give him the same thing over and over again he starts to react to it.
However judging from how he is reacting to it I think I might have to cut out the Hills Z/D.
Does anyone have any advice? Could anyone recommend anything that I might not have tried?
Thank you very much
