Ok, so I've really been considering switching Bodie to a raw or cooked diet, but I'm sooo confused on how, and what, and so on...
We know that Bodie is allergic to storage mites, I know that no matter how good or premium the kibble is, if its packaged, it's going to have storage mites. Someone here on EBN had mentioned to me that switching to raw would rectify the mite problem, then someone mentioned that by cooking his food it kills any mites. But if I'm buying "instinct raw" medallions, wouldn't they still contain mites since they are packaged? And when feeding raw, do we actually feed him raw meat? Or cook it? Or what? I really need as much info as possible on these different feeding options.
Bodie's skin is really really bad right now, I'd go as far as to say its the worst it's ever been:frowns: So we've got to make some changes.
Also, I've read in other forums here on EBN about a specific blood test that will show environmentals and any food allergies. Anyone have the specifics on that test?
BullyLove!!!
