So we switched Chunk to Fromm it's been a week and a half for the switch over, and already he's not chewing on his paws, and his tear stains are clearing up! :yes: Needless to say, Mama is pleased!

Whoohoo! That's great to hear. I'm switching Otis over to FROMM as well, just waiting for the store to open!

Awesome news Alison, Rocky made so many improvements, just by switching his food from Pedigree to Blue Buffalo…. I can totally identify with your findings…

I recently switched my bully over to beef Fromm and it was great the first 3 weeks. Solid poops and no tear stains- as of today he's a giant yeast ball, swollen paws, and has lost huge amounts of hair on either sides of him. Does anyone think this could be caused by the food or some sort of medial issue. He's still his energetic self, just not physically! :-(

Which Fromm are you feeding? A lot of bullies have sensitivity to chicken or salmon. My Blossom has sensitivity or allergies to both, and we feed our guys Fromms Beef, they have been on it for 8 months and are doing great, but I might try the new one Pork and Peas as a flavour change and see how they do.

That's great, I'm glad you found something that Chunk tolerates. My 2 guys are on Fromms beef as well.

[MENTION=6311]Vikinggirl[/MENTION] is right - perhaps you're just not on the right protein for him? We have experts here to help you. :yes: (But I'm not one of them) LOL

Have you had those bare spots looked at by a vet? Could be seasonal alopecia; a common thing for EBs. Get a skin scraping done. It's inexpensive and will save you a lot of guessing!

yes this could be from the food and sounds like it is but it could be a medical issue also. what was your dog on before and did he do good on it? if so add that back in to his diet and see if the issues start going away. you can also perhaps do some beef n brown rice or chicken n brown rice n some veggies for a few days. which fromm are you using one of the grain free or one of the other ones. if one of the grain ones perhaps try the pork n peas. finding your dogs protein is essential then work out from there. i am around to help just give me a hollar.

Thanks so much for helping. He's had been on every food in the book! Prior to the Fromm he was on merrick( lamb ) He looked amazing on the merrick. It wasn't grain free. He one day woke up and chose to no longer eat the merrick. It was a chore for him to eat. The vet insisted that his next food be grain free. That's where I am at now. I chose the beef because other then the lamb. He doesn't do well. Fromm does not have a grain free lamb unfortunately.
