if my dogs weren't itching and their poop was ok, the food was "working" for them.
But after joining this forum and getting a little more educated, I'm seeing that there are other signs that food may not be working either.
I've recently tried grain free for my guys. Started with Fromm (Surf and Turf and Game bird) and my dogs ate it "ok"--but not with any enthusiasm. Which still baffles me because they would get so excited over their Duck/sweet potato 4 star food.
So then I picked up some Natural Balance Alpa Chicken/Lamb/Rabbit. I grabbed two bags because I got a really good deal on it. Well first bag went ok, but I did notice my golden threw up a couple of times, some undigested/chewed food. Not much, with more water.
This morning, he did the same thing. Could it just be a thing? Or could it be a slight reaction to the food? He just had a check up, so healthwise, he is doing great.
Then my little dog's eyes have junk in them. She doesn't always have this, but has had some in the past. I never linked it to food, but am wondering if that could be from this after reading some other symptoms of aggrevations of certain foods on other threads.
Our lab seems to be fine with no questions.
But again, they are not eating this food with gusto either. (not saying that is a bad thing--but they are typically enthusiastic eaters).
Has anyone had dogs not do well on GF? Or have I just not found "the one" yet?
