I'm trying a different tactic as I am wasting too much money buying bags of dog food to throw out. I have decided to contact specific food companies one at a time to ask advice - contacted Burns this morning and was very impressed that they replied on a Sunday and where very helpful asking what we fed now etc and advising on a diet which they felt might help. They are going to send out samples of two different feeds in their range where they advise a very slow changeover, will do it over ten days, would normally have did it over five days

Oh he's fine thanks, back on home cooking - bit itchy but nothing much. He had sardines & toast for his breakfast

How's Mya doing?

aw bless him glad he's ok, I might try that for my 2 for breakfast.
Mya's ears are back to normal still putting the drops in and she's back at the vets at 5:30pm for a check up and also her pre-op check before her spay next week.

I was in PAH earlier this week & whilst there noticed that Wainwrights have a new recipe - turkey & veg. Bought 2 small bags - think they are only 1.5 kilo in weight each. This was while I was waiting for the Burns samples to arrive

Over the past 3days I have been adding small amounts of the kibble to his feeds - with no reaction. I am not going to allow myself to be optimistic, however signs are (cautiously) good

I spoke to their manager about the parking problem & he told me that I could park in front of the store

Dogsey vibes needed here - heres hoping, we have found a food that agrees with the boy

Fantastic Helen I've got everything crossed here xx
ps that's another one I can add to my list too
I've not been brave enough to try anything yet so still home cooking, I'm going to wait until Mya's had her spay and has recovered properly before I try just in case.
Keep us posted on how Harvey is doing
