HELP....Ginger has lots and lots of new puppies

[workn2hard2day]

One of my dogs gets stress diarrhea, I feed her canned pumpkin (NOT pumpkin pie mix) you can find it in the canned veggie isle. She loves it and it helps her out with a couple bowel movements. She is a black lab and I feed her about 1/2c, btwn feeding.

do your research on puppy food, most vet sold brands are nothing but garbage, especialy royal canin.

here is a good resorce of dogfood ratings you can look through to get an idea of the levels of quality of different dry foods.

That website doesn't list either of the high end foods that I use... your best bet is to talk to your breeder and find out what they recommend... they will know what works best for your breed... assuming that they are a decent breeder (some just feed cheap stuff to keep the costs down).

they list 3 different types of TOTW

the Befor grain is a pretty good food, potato is a little high up on the list for me, but I would put it in the 4 or 5 star catagories.

TOTW is about the same quality but I like the Before grain better than it. the TOTW has tomato pummice which is a stool hardener, so they are using a additive to make sure stools are hard which can mask medical issues.

after reading some more I woulnd buy the befor grain. lots of quality control issues and forgin objects baing found in the food. and the fact that the main business of Merrick is a rendering plant which happens to be the same address as there pet food plant. Rendered product is horable to feed to pets.
