: New Here...Question about Bullmastiff and Food
: GracieDog January 08, 2009, 01:19:50 PM
Hi Everyone,

Just looking for some advice.  I was recently feeding my bullmastiff Nutro until she got sick (3 weeks of belly trouble).  I thought she was adjusted to a new bag, like maybe they had changed the formula or something.  She has had trouble with food before, so I switched to real food.  Currently she is on hamburger (boiled), steak tips, chicken, veggies, and pasta.  The belly is all better, but I am basically guessing at the portion size.

Anyone else cooking for their pet and have serving size suggestions? 

Thanks in advance for your help!

Awwwe, she's gorgeous!
I don't have any tips, I feed Evo (also having portioning problems with Gunther who's lost alot of weight on it).

I'm sure someone will be on to help you out.  :)

I've got my two Bullmastiff Xs on Eagle Pack Holistic. Never had any problems.

Thanks for the information.

I will look into a better dog food too.  So it is nice to get the brands you use.  I would prefer dog food, but she had such trouble with digestion, itching skin, and ear infections, that I thought I would try something completely new and see if that helped.  Don't worry, I talked to my vet, so I am not simply experimenting with my dog.

But thanks again for the info.  I will keep doing research and see what turns up. 

Thanks for compliments too.  Grace is 6 years old and we love her!

Orijen makes a 6 Fish kibble, that usually helps to eliminate most diet allergies ;) It's a little more expensive than the regular Adult though.
