Just wondering if anyone uses this formula.

Coalie has given me some issues for some time now and just gets bored of her food. We've tried most brands and found that her stomach does best with Barking at the Moon, grain/gluten free. She is bored with this kibble (I've tried other brands that are also grain/gluten free and she does not like them). I started adding cooked ground beef and boiled chicken and of course she then loves her dry food. I wanted to try adding canned food simply for the convenience of it already being prepared for me. Any suggestions? I bought a can of Wellness chicken and sweet potato today but am nervous because she has a sensitive stomach.

Thanks in advance Wink

vishnu had terrible problems with his digestive system, and even had bloat. after that, i fed him canned wellness lamb for a year and he did great! he is doing even better on raw nature's variety lamb.

just try and see what works. i saw a change with the first meal of canned food.

I always give Ruby a mixture of dry and wet. She doesn't really have stomach issues though.. I just think it would be much more appealing to a dog to have a bit of something mixed in. I imgaine if someone gave me a box of weetbix to eat everday I would get the bored with that in no time at all!!
