ProPlan food?

[Cincy'sMom]

Giselle~ I have looked at the ingredients of Science Diet and I was upset about switching Cincy to it. However, she has a weight problem, and her body could not tolerate the California Natural. I tried it for Cincy, and it works for her. Her skin has actually gotten better (she has fought acne her whole life), she has lost weight, and she hasn't had an infection since switching. I would not have picked the food myself, but it works for her and that is what matters to me. Honestly, the points you were making about fillers and chemicals are the exact same things I said to the poor receptionist yesterday, who got an earful from me about dog food. Poor girl! Oh yeah, Sadie is on anitbiotics.


Staci~ Well the receptionist told me ProPlan, I asked if it was a good food...she says oh yeah...it is what all of us here have our animals on...it is a like Iams. I Looked at her and said Iams is not a good food...it is all fillers and chemicals and crap. At that point I knew I was wasting my breath, so I left. The dogs were on Sensible Choice by Royal Canin for about 2 years and did fine on that. In fact, when I called Ralph I said we should think about going back there. I'm just paranoid about any premium food now, becuase of our urinary issues. I guess the bigger question is finding out what in food causes them and looking for a premium food that is low in that area.

Phred~ Diamond foods are ones I have looked at before and considered. I'll keep it in mind and look again.

I do think the vets in this area don't know much about dog food. My BIL goes to a different vet then we do, and they asked what food the fed Sammy. When they said Canidea, the vet said brand, not how much I may have to call around to see if anyvets in the area know much about nutrition...
