I should have said it's the Wellness Adult All Chicken KIBBLE. I agree the all chick meat in a can should be used as a topper only.

There is nothing else in it. No vitamins, minerals etc. I feed the Wellness Core now to Ricky. I have bought the 95% chicken & turkey just to mix a bit in. He is doing well on it. I will research that about hip problems. shanna Christening, Communion, Formal Wear For Girls and Boys ages Newborn & up Click here to enter my ebay store! http://stores.ebay.com/Kavis-Christening-n-Communion-Store Shanna & Ricky --- On Fri, 1/7/11, Peggy & The Girls <[email protected]> wrote: From: Peggy & The Girls <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] patellar luxation / Bad Knees in chi's To: [email protected] Date: Friday, January 7, 2011, 5:43 AM He only does this after he pees? It may not be the knee, but the hip joint. I also remember seeing something with male dogs that can do that, but I think, not sure, that it had something to do with a gland or a trick nerve or something like that. Try to Google 'why do male dogs lift their leg to urinate' it may give you more clues. I use the Wellness all chicken for the girls and they love it. Except that Princess was loosing weight, and I didn't like her coat either, even though I increased the amount. So now I give her half Wellness and half of her old kibble and she seems to be doing better, and her coat seems to be coming in better. I am also doing the same thing with Gigi and she has finally stopped shedding so much and is getting back her shine. So some thing must be missing in the all chicken blend. -------Original Message------- From: Shanna Machanpalli Date: 1/7/2011 12:04:26 AM To: Chihuahua Group Subject: [Chihuahuas] patellar luxation / Bad Knees in chi's Hi Everyone Well... Ricky seems to be hoping a bit when we are out for a walk. Only on the right back leg. He does not limp, and does it after he has peed with that leg up & sometimes while walking now. I just read to give Glucosemine suppliments, feed raw or grain free food, walk on an incline to help strengthen the muscles around the knee, ect. He does not cry or show that he is in any pain. I want to do this a natural way. I have been feeding wellness Core & wellness ninety-five to him. Only the wellness core is grain free and as close to raw as you can get without me doing it. Does anyone have an opinion? thanks shanna & ricky Christening, Communion, Formal Wear For Girls and Boys ages Newborn & up Click here to enter my ebay store! http://stores.ebay.com/Kavis-Christening-n-Communion-Store ©2003 LongBraid Designs
