GAWD....Holly- these posts are probably getting really annoying for you! I'm so sorry! I searched previous posts and couldn't find info on this....
Winston is currently on California Natural Chicken and Rice. Due to his skin/coat/ear problems, we suspected allergies and have been trying single source proteins to weed out the problem.
Winston is only doing "ok" on the Chicken and Rice. No ear problems, but he does have dry skin, itching, and his coat his super thin. For this purpose, as well as the fact that he's been on an only chicken protein source for a while, I thought it might be time to explore his tolerance to other protein sources.
If I stick with California Natural, the only other two single-protein options are Lamb and Brown Rice and the other is Herring and Sweet Potato.
I have my reservations about the Lamb (due to possible taurine deficiency and related heart problems), but know very little about how good Herring would be as his only protein source. Any thoughts?
P.S. I might add....I've been trying to add fish oil to his diet, but it always results in loose stools....make s me worry about switching to a fish protein.
Help!
