Hi

my gooner is 1yrs old we have tried him on numerous types of kibble. He has a very sensitive stomach and has only just been able to tolerate Harringtonā€™s salmon and sweet potatoe but the problem we have now is his fur is very course and he is shedding bad. Can anyone recommend another food as we have tried royal canine hills hypoallergenic. I am at a loose end now not sure what to try next.

In the UK you have also Acana. Theyā€™re single protein bags. They are high quality kibbles n I would start with duck. Itā€™s easier to digest.

Plz donā€™t use royal canine. Itā€™s all grains n definitely not fit for dogs but farm animals. Avoid any brand like Royal Canin, Science Hill, Purina. You will avoid future health issues. If your dog has stomach issues add fermented sauerkraut or fermented veggies. About 1/4 cup (32g) mixed in the kibbles. Also same amount of RAW organs. But do the acana first, let him get use to it. Slowly add these toppers. šŸ™‚ later you can rotate Acana bags. Protein Rotations is the key to get the gut flora going n less allergies. Acana has duck, fish, beef, lamb etc. easier to monitor if any allergies. Heā€™s only 1 so get him going on rotations. :)

My 2 love Gentle dog food . Itā€™s cold pressed and they have original , fish or Goat . Itā€™s designed to go with Raw or on its own . Mine have never been sick or had tummy upsets with it . The Gentle dog food company also do tubes of buffalo which they love . Itā€™s not the cheapest but Iā€™ve never had any issues . Good luck šŸ¤ž

hey @Gooner ! i dont really have any advice for you on diet im afraid, my boy Lenny has been on hypoallergenic for a couple of months because he had bladder stones. I've just ordered him some nature's menu raw rabbit https://www.naturesmenu.co.uk/full-flavoured-rabbit-nmnrc which he'll be starting on soon.

love your bullys name though, sounds like he must support the best team in london!

Good to know for ALL U.K. Pet owners. Hard for us Westerners not knowing what works as pet food overseas. We donā€™t have it on this side. We get asked often from UK residents butā€¦..
