    Oh, poor Falise!

    I switched Buddy back to all Pro Plan, but now have to slowly switch Sierra back to it. I also gave Bud some Benadryl yesterday. Hope his feet clear up quickly!

    Thank you all for the posts!

    Gosh Angie I'm so sorry to hear about Bud's feet.

    I guess it doesn't matter what they eat as long as their doing good!

    Hummm, maybe it's not the food....
    It's been 5 days now that I've stopped feeding the food and I'm giving him Benydral and his feet are not getting better at all and I've noticed him drinking more water than normal.

    Maybe a trip to the white coats is in his near future, or should I just give it more time??

    You know my Vet said that Pro Plan is actually a really good food, we had Reilly on that for 6mos and he was doing great, his coat was shiny, no dry skin, no upset stomach. We decided to try him on Nutro natural choice, he hated the lamb one, so I tried the chicken one, he was not crazy about the taste but he ate it, but I did not like what was going on after a month, he is shedding horribly, is very itchy, dry skin, and worse of all upset stomach. So we put him back on Pro-plan, as long as he is ok with it, im sticking to it.

    have you ever considered RAW?
    Keegan has simply THRIVED on Raw for about 13 months.
    When I was researching it said that a lot of dogs that have allergy to a certain protein (example: chicken) in a dog food are not allergic to the pure protein source when it is given raw. Now I know that RAW isn't for everyone and I have only one dog. I also know that when Anna fed her girls RAW chicken they got really itchy so they don't get it. I've found a small grocery here in town that sells Amish chicken and it doesn't have all the anti-biotics in it and the chickens are grain fed. It doesn't have the film on them like when I buy them at Walmart. Keegan doesn't seem to be affected either way, Thank GOD b/c she gets Chicken A LOT! (cheaper)
    just a thought...
    if not - There's a zillion kinds of food out there. GOOD LUCK!!
