Food Discussion & Information / Re: anyone tried this food???
« Last post by gaagaa4goldens on January 05, 2010, 08:34:57 pm »Thanks for your response! I appreciate the comments. As I said before my dogs had been on a mix of Solid Gold Holistiz and Wellness Supermix Chicken. I decided to stick with Solid Gold, but I put them on Wolf King. Tucker, my male golden, is THE most picky eater I've every met. I fed he and Allie half Holistic and half Wolf King this evening and he GOBBLED it up. I've never seen him eat so well. Yeah!!! I'm so happy.
Thanks again!

General Board for Big Dogs with Big Paws / Dealer Must Go
« Last post by Ozarkred on January 05, 2010, 02:34:17 pm »It hurts me, but I have had to get rid of my stock. So, Dealer must have a new home. Although he is only 6 months old, he understands that he is a herd guard. The problem is that his "herd" consists of 6 ducks, and chickens that are in a chicken house.
If you are not sure if you want to sink a lot of money in a dog, he might be the perfect starter. All I want is for Dealer to have a country home. Call 417-662-0144. I'm between, and near Springfield, MO, and Fayetteville, AR. (And, yes,that does mean I am giving him away).

General Board for Big Dogs with Big Paws / Doggy boots for double-dewed feet
« Last post by podiecat on January 05, 2010, 07:09:59 am »Now that Tess (was named Lia) is a full service dog and comes with me everywhere, 24/7, I'm concerned about the amount of road salt she gets from walking in messy Vt winter conditions. Her rear double dews stick out perpendicular. Can anyone recommend dog boots that work for a pyr?
Thanks.....

Food Discussion & Information / Re: anyone tried this food???
« Last post by sc.trojans on January 04, 2010, 04:23:08 pm »I don't like this food for several reasons...firs t, it has a lot of potentially problematic grains......wh eat and barley are high allergen and not my choice. Rice is the easiest to digest so if grains are to be included, I advocate rice or sweet potato in place of grain.
Second, they clearly don't have a vet nutritionist on board because they, like many dog foods today, are using ingredients that are not biologically appropriate for dogs and therefore cannot provide the intended nutrient. Example, Flaxseed is not a source of omega 3 for dogs as it provides ALA that must be converted to derive omega 3. Dogs are not capable of making this conversion and therefore cannot derive omega 3 benefit from flaxseed (many humans can't make this conversion as well actually). Fish oils are the only reliable, biologically appropriate source of omega 3 for dogs.
Third, their lab assay is incomplete.... they don't even provide a calcium and phosphorus analysis which is the most critical ratio and two nutrients I evaluate in dog food - the most critical for growing dogs.
There are so many better foods out there, I see no reason to use this one.
Just my two cents.
