Moll. 1,770 Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 fed redmills for years but recently changed to a lower protein my vets advice as weve had a bitch with kidney trouble due to protein poison Some of the working dog complete, is way to high in protein, 37% some of it, no need for it , even during the working months, 21% tops is what i go for Agreed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Millet 4,497 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 A few folk don't realise that too much protien can poison a dog and cause kidney damage or even kidney failure..i had a terrier some year's back with kidney damage which eventualy died..the vet told me to knock any high protien on the head and only feed low protein food's..

Butler 396 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 It's not the % of protein i would worry about in a dogs diet but the quality of protein. Alot of complete foods use vegetable protein which is no were near as good as animal protein. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
