I am the happy, proud owner of a 4 month old, 14 pound wheaten terrier. He is great in general, but I have a lot of food questions and my vet just hasn't seemed super knowledgeable.
When we got him (Bacon) he was on Purina Pro Plan - Puppy formula. After doing some reading, we wanted to find a higher quality food for him and I think we have settled on Orijen Puppy. I like what I read about the quality controls of the company and the ingredients. Am I missing anything or is this a good place to start?
One thing my vet did mention is a tablespoon of yogurt every day for digestive health. Does anyone else do this? Does it cause loose stools? I tried it this week and I'm not sure it is agreeing with him.
Last question, my vet said that feeding him 3 times a day, 1/2 cup each feeding is sufficient, but he still seems VERY hungry. Is this enough? I know I sound like I don't trust everything the vet says... and well, maybe I don't!
