What food do you guys use, and what type of dog/dogs do you have?
I've got a 1 year old (well, tomorrow he will be 1) German Shepherd AKC and he weighs around 80-85lbs... I'm having a hard time finding food that he can digest well, and I've tried a lot of stuff such as the following:
Beneficial - messed his skin up and got little bumps all over him (same thing happened to my parent's Yellow Lab, but he made bare spots on his body by biting and scratching) - changed both of their foods and the labs hair grew back and he lost fat and gained more muscle
Eagle Pack Hollistic - Large Breed Puppy Formula - couldn't get his poop right... all loose
Eagle Pack Hollistic - Anchovey (fish formula) - worked good for a while, but he wasn't putting on weight
Nutro - same as above, worked a little, then spotty stools
Science Diet, Lamb and Rice - the lady told me this should work with his diet, but apparently he couldn't handle how rich it was
Innova Evo Red Meat - I'm currently feeding him this and it is definitely putting the weight on him and his stools are sometimes good, sometimes bad... but he doesn't poop as much as he used to which I know is good because he's obtaining more of the nutrients... the only bad thing about this is a 30lb bag is $70 and it doesn't take long for him to go through a bag at 4 cups per day.
This is Kodiak at 7 mos... he's a little bigger now, which reminds me I need more pictures
