You say you've tried "most things" and that might be the problem? I use Gain Puppy & Sapling as well as Gain Record Breaker and Gain 28. All pretty high in protein but they work for me. I feed raw too. Try and find something that works and stick with it! 2 Quote Link to post
JackBrown 3 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Beta puppy is what I give my lurcher pup since I got him at 8 week never looked back. Dogs growing and in top condition HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Quote Link to post
trinder 127 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 I use dr johns silver dry but i try to vary my dogs diets , raw liver chicken rabbit , cooked rice , cooked fish i could go on all day lol try to find the right balance for your pup . The way i see it the more good food feed the better , a varied protien and oil rich diet will improve your dogs overall health and condition Hope this helps Atb trinder Quote Link to post

nat 8 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 I also use the dr Johns complete biscuits there's a few differnt flavours and there's a high protien 1 designed for racing dogs, but this made my whippet loose fur and get a rash ? So I'm using the blue bag now Quote Link to post

1Wally 204 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 My bully does really well on beta active which is high protein but mates lighter dog has problems with it. Dont know if thats a common theme?? Quote Link to post
Shazza 52 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 All mine (pets & workers) are on Chudleys Greyhound Racer, they love it and look great on it. Gives the lurcher enough energy without making the pet dogs fizzy. They all have beautiful coats but more importantly hard poops (dark in colour, little smell and very little of it) Had a dog a while back who had a very sensitive digestion, constant watery/bloody dire-rear. I gave him Supadog sensitive and it was brill, only thing he could eat that didn't projectile out the other end and he looked great on it Quote Link to post
