I have been contemplating this food for Bogie. He is so picky though I just don't know if he will eat it. I think I will try the sample pack first and see. He does eat frozen raw that we buy at a Pet store. He likes it but some days he will eat it and some days he won't. Royal Canin has been the only dry I can get him to eat, except for the cheap stuff like Purina. Sheila "Life is what happens when you are busy making plans."

I feed Timber Wolf Organics with a tablespoon of tuna to give the dry kibble a little flavor. They munch on it dry in between meals, I just spoil them.....LOL. They love it and my dogs coats have improved so much. Minnie & Penny r SC and Lacy is LC. Minnie's coat is sooooooo short and always felt a little wiry, but now it's so soft. Penny's is softer too, and shines like glass now. She is black and tan and the shine shows more on her. Lacy's has always been soft, but what I noticed with her is, she always had a lot of eye drainage and that has improved 99%. She also has lost a lb or 2, which she needed. And she plays a lot more now too. It is really small kibble, nice for chi's. It has no corn or animal by-products and is full of herbs and vitamins. I get the Southwest Chicken and Herbs, but they have several other flavors.My girls would eat them all, but liked the Southwest Chicken and Herbs best. Actually, they liked the Serengeti cat food the best, but the company told me it would be better for them, to give them the dog food. The Serengeti is real tiny kibble.The dog kibble is about the size of a pencil eraser and the cat food is even smaller. They pack there kibble in foil bags, and that makes it nice to order ahead, because it stays fresh. I order it on-line by the case of 9-4 lb bags and it saves money, but stays fresh. The neat thing is they don't charge shipping and handling on orders over $15.00 and it's delivered right to my door. Here is the link if anyone is interested. I'm not connected to this company in any way....LOL....just a happy customer. http://timberwolfor <http://timberwolforganics.com/pet-foods> ganics.com/pet-foods Blessings to u and your's :-) Addy marky murray wrote: Anybody on this list feed Raw??

If anyone uses Ceasar, be careful- in a long term this is from my vet- too much fat and salt inside those little cans. --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:Chihuahuas%40yahoogroups.com> ups.com , "cspdcalgary" <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > They did the blood tests, and nothing out of the ordinary, they will > re-do them again (free of charge) cause the vet is getting frustrated- > he wants to get to the bottom of this, love my vet, love my chi, > getting no sleep but hope it will all work out > > I am leaning towards the other leg, maybe the patella problem, but > she would hop and try not to use the leg, when we do put her down, > she just asks to be picked up, when we dont, she goes nuts wagging > her tail, screaming,as if she had a dose of cocaine, seriously her > eyes open wide very alert, we pick her up, nice and calm, as if > anothing happened. > > The emergency clinic said it could be a neaurological problem.
