I have to admit I'm a bit confused about how much to use of the superboost too!

I ended up putting 3 teaspoons into the 280g of veg mix, then added that mix to the 500g of meat

it would be great to hear what other people have done :-)

You might want to PM Erny and sas - I think they've both had great success with it?

thank you,

I will try to PM, I'm not that good with working out how to do alot of these this :-)

Hi

just came across this, Augustine’s SuperFood

the diet looks easy to do, just wondering if anyone is feeding there dog this and how is it going

Hi, I'm trying to source Hills Z/D Low allergen kibble for Koda. She's been doing fine on that but it's now costing us $190 a bag from the vet here in Karratha wa. Most placed online either don't deliver to WA or are out of stock. Does anyone know where I can source this product from. Is there an issue with supply? The vet has had delays in getting it as well.

Thanks.

My boy was on z/d for over a year and then the vet had the same problems, could not get it.

after trying a coulpe of different one's and doing some research we have settled on Canidae Sky grain free

and he is doing even better then when he was on z/d

look for game meats and grain free

hope you find something that suits Koda

so deeply sorry for your loss

please if you need financial help to get legal help, I'm sure there are a lot of us here willing to help!!!

I did ask the rep what the "natural fats and oils" and "natural flavours" were specifically, as well as where it is manufactured, and received no response in spite of promises to get back to me.

When we select products to stock, we like straight answers to simple questions lol.

I wondered if there was any kangaroo based food in aus. For my dog I would not feed this as the fat content isn't high enough for her needs

Thanks for the reply, would the fat be enough for the average dog thoe ?

I only add things like yoghurt, sardines to the dry food would this be enought for a dog?

Hi just wondering if any one has used this food and whats it like?

Hi, I have a beautiful little Chocolate Roan baby Cocker (15 weeks)

have been told in time her colour will fade

so I was wondering about this product and if anyone has used it and if it is any good?

Colour-Max Coat Supplement for Dogs

I feed the rescue puppies on either Canidae ALS or Black Hawk (depending on which I have in stock) and they've all done well.

Thank you!

Hi

I feed my Boy's (GR) Canadae grain free sky and they are doing great on it

my daughter has a 12 week old Cocker spaniel baby and is wondering if she could start her on it

the pack says all age and gives a feeding giude, but was wondering if anyone has feed there puppies this

and if so how was it?

Trouble with protein? Can you explain that?

The short version is that allergies are based on the fact that consuming large proteins causes a huge histamine release in the body - a bit like hayfever, but obviously different. The histamine release is an over response by the immune system.

Proteins with a molecular weight of less than 10,000 daltons generally go undetected by the immune system - so no histamine release.

In Hills z/d, and also RC hypoallergenic, the proteins are hydrolysed down so they have an average molecular weight of 3,000 daltons.

Starches included in the food are either extremely low protein <1% or purified so they contain no proteins.

Some dogs will have chronic gastrointestinal symptoms not because they are allergic to one specific protein, it's due to large proteins causing skin or gut issues. It wouldn't matter what animal protein you tried if the dog's system cannot process large proteins - which is very often the case.

Thank you very much, very interesting.

Just wondering if the RSPCA are doing anything about this, arnt they surpose to be about animal welfare

or do we need something more like the animal police in the US

and if by some chance we catch these so called people, they should never see the light of day again AND I hope there cell mate is an animal lover

also have thought of makeing his food myself but worry I would not put everything in it that he needs eg vitamins, minerals, fats,

Trouble with protein? Can you explain that?

sorry not realy, vet just said he is haveing trouble with the animal protein try ZD

his tummy and ear (he repeatedly gets an ear infection in one ear) does well on ZD but he has less energy and has lost coat and at $149 for 11kg

I think it should be better, dont realy care what it cost just want him feeling better

thats why I thought I'd ask if anyone else has tryed something different when told to use ZD

I have tryed to look into it but it get so confusing, alot of the low alergy ones have potato in it like ZD but have found online that white potato is not that good for dogs as its part of the nightshade family and if the dog food people use older potatos its not good

the US has LOTS of different foods chick peas, sweet potato, lentils with fish which I think could be better for him

but we do not get any of them here in Australia

Yeah but my allergy dog can't have the Gastro one it's full of wheat

I'm thinking wheat is a prob for my boy too

have been told that grain free canidae sky or sea is good, dont know how it stacks up in the price to the others

I feed Royal Canin Hypoallergenic, its made my dogs coat very full and shiny

Thank you for your reply

will have a look at the Royal Canin

Why is he on the ZD?

had tummy prob and vet said he is haveing trouble with proteins

Hi

my boy 3year old golden has been on ZD Hills (from vet)for about a year, bit lethargic and coat not the best

ps, a pic of my boy meeting a little freind
