what brand of kibbles do you feed your doggies ?

It's not nuerotic...it's being cautious.

The chatter about West Nile hasn't been as strong this year. It seemed as though every dead bird was being tested for it in years past. I haven't checked on the situation in Virginia...thanks for the reminder.

Here is a link to the AVMA info on chronic wasting disease (mad cow disease.) It's a big deal in Wisconsin, but there is no evidence than it can be transmitted to dogs or humans.

I also just read on NV's website that their venison is imported from New Zealand. I didn't know mad cow's disease was the same thing as wastings disease--interesting

That's great!

My venison is locally vaught (hunted) and I live in an area where mad cow/waste disease is yet to be seen thankfully. I will keep alert about it though. Thanks for the heads up.

I feed raw in the morning, and Timberwolf Organics at night. Although I do rotate through the formulas every three months just to keep a variety in my dog's diet.

We feed ours RAW (no beef) with Arden Grange with Fresh Salmon kibble. It is great fir sensitive stomachs and skin which our dear Lula has. At the moment it's a bit difficult to get some meats because of the recent cases of Foot and Mouth disease. Luckily it doesn't look like it will be as bad as last time - the whole country turned into a huge BBQ. It was horrific

Right now I'm feeding Solid Gold Barking at the Moon and Solid Gold Cinnabones cookies. I also feed peas, sweet potatoe, green beans and peeled apples and bananas from time to time.

I am feeding my girl Natural Choice. There is a new formula for sensitive stomachs and sensitive skin that comes in a purple bag, and I believe it is venicen and brown rice, which sounded really healthy to me. I was broke for a while and had to give her Pedigree, but now that we can afford the good stuff she is soooo happy and I could tell instantly she loved the food.

We feed Wellness Super5 Senior Formula to one of our dogs, and Natural Balance Sweet Potato & Fish to the other one who is IBS and grain-intolerant. Those are the basic kibbles.

They also get raw, and also sometimes get a bit of Merrick canned food (only the grain-free formulas) mixed in to the kibble, or a small sprinkle of Wysong Archetype as a "top dressing" to their kibbles. This is in addition to nutritional supplements.

For treats we use venison/buffalo jerky, Lakse Kronchen dried salmon bits, freeze-dried liver or Grizzly NuTreats.
